sld_signaltap IP Core
The sld_signaltap IP allows you to instantiate Signal Tap Logic Analyzer instances in your design earlier in the design cycle when using the Signal Tap Logic Analyzer and without the need for a Signal Tap File (.stp) Definition. Designs containing Signal Tap Logic Analyzer IP instances can be compiled without a Signal Tap File. The sld_signaltap IP is available for all Intel device families supported by the Intel® Quartus® Prime software except the MAX® series.
To create a Signal Tap File from Signal Tap Logic Analyzer IP instances, on the File menu, point to Create/Update and click Create Signal Tap File from Design Instance(s).
Intel recommends instantiating this function with the IP Catalog.
When you create your IP instance, you can use the IP Catalog to generate a netlist for third-party synthesis tools.
