The Quartus® Prime Getting Started Guide series is intended for users new to the Quartus® Prime design software.

[Notes] For the FPGA / CPLD development flow, please refer here .

explanation

This document is a tutorial that shows how to use the Quartus® Prime software to create digital logic circuits and operate evaluation and development kits equipped with Altera® FPGAs. Users who are designing FPGAs for the first time can easily understand the basic operation flow of the development software.

When developing an Altera® FPGA, steps [2] to [9] in the development flow are done using Quartus® Prime.
[4] uses an EDA simulation tool that supports Altera® FPGAs, such as Questa* - Altera® FPGA Edition.

In this tutorial, you can experience steps [3] to [8] of the development flow.
