Purpose of this course

Overview

The presentation of the popular hands-on seminar "Nios® II Introductory Trial" has been released as an online video.

In this seminar, we will introduce the Nios® II overview, advantages, development environment, and approach to improving performance for customers who are considering the Nios® II processor, a soft-core CPU product provided by Intel®. The original seminar is a hands-on seminar where you can experience and learn the actual development flow using Quartus® Prime/Platform Designer and Nios® II Software Build Tools for Eclipse (Nios II SBT).
For hands-on sessions, we publish a practice manual on the Nios® II Getting Started Guide - Nios® II Quick Tutorial page.
In addition, customers who do not have an Intel® FPGA-based board can also experience hands-on exercises using the kit by applying for a free evaluation kit rental service called "Intel® Cyclone® 10 LP FPGA Seminar In a Box". increase.
