To migrate a high-density Stratix FPGA design to an equivalent HardCopy Stratix device, Altera requires output files directly from the Quartus® II software. However, all the required design tools are available in the Quartus II software version 3.0 and later, so there is no need for costly ASIC development tools. Table 1 provides a list of design utilities available for HardCopy Stratix devices. Table 1. HardCopy Stratix Design Utilities Design Utility Description Quartus II Software Support Discover the feature-rich, state-of-the-art software that helps you design high-density Stratix FPGAs and HardCopy Stratix devices. FPGA vs. ASIC Cost Calculator Compare the total cost of using an FPGA (or a HardCopy fixed-function device) versus an ASIC.
