Can Nguyen Principal Staff Engineer Broadband Communications Sector, Motorola #1 Design Software in Performance and Productivity Used in combination with a broad portfolio of design-ready intellectual property (IP) cores, Quartus II development software gives you unmatched levels of performance and productivity in your designs. Quartus II software is easy to use and enables you to get products to market faster. FPGA Design Flow CPLD Design Flow HardCopy ASIC Design Flow Read what our customers are saying The Leader in Productivity for FPGA Designs Quartus II software enables the highest levels of productivity and the fastest path to design completion for both high-density and low-cost FPGA design. Dramatically improve your productivity compared to traditional FPGA design flows. Take advantage of the following productivity enhancing features today: TimeQuest timing analyzer is a next-generation, ASIC-strength timing analyzer supporting the industry-standard Synopsys Design Constraints (SDC)-based timing analysis methodology. PowerPlay power analysis and optimization technology provides automated power optimization capabilities and helps you effectively manage power from design concept through implementation. Incremental compilation supports the bottom-up design flow that allows design blocks to be created and optimized independently. System architects can incrementally integrate optimized design blocks while the performance of the design blocks is preserved throughout the integration process. SOPC Builder eliminates mundane and error-prone system integration tasks and allows you to build systems in minutes. Push-button physical synthesis technology and the automated Design Space Explorer (DSE) simplify design optimization. Extensive cross-probing support between tools helps identify and correct design issues. The pin planner feature (PDF) enables easy I/O pin assignment planning, assignment, and validation. Complete command-line and tool command language (Tcl) scripting interfaces give you advanced scripting capabilities. Technology Leadership Quartus II software continues its tradition of technology leadership in the following areas: Performance Design flow and IP integration methodologies Incremental compilation SOPC Builder integration and system generation tool HardCopy ASIC design flow—target FPGAs or HardCopy ASICs using the same low-cost software and the same IP Complete command-line and Tcl scripting interfaces Support for leading third-party EDA tools Nios II embedded processor Extensive library of off-the-shelf IP cores DSP Builder software Place-and-route technology Timing closure technology Verification solutions TimeQuest timing analyzer is an easy-to-use ASIC-strength timing analyzer with native SDC format PowerPlay power analysis and optimization Capability to update memory and constants in-system without reconfiguring the device Chip Planner SignalTap II embedded logic analyzer and support for integration with external logic analyzers Integration with all leading third-party EDA verification tools and methodologies Design to Win with Quartus II Software Today Altera's Quartus II software is available in three comprehensive packages for both Subscription Edition and Web Edition. Select the version that is best for you.
