Upgrading IP Cores

IP core variants generated with a previous version of the Quartus II software may require upgrading

before use in the current version of the Quartus II software. Click Project > Upgrade IP Components to

identify and upgrade IP core variants.
The Upgrade IP Components dialog box provides instructions when IP upgrade is required, optional, or

unsupported for specific IP cores in your design. You must upgrade IP cores that require it before you can

compile the IP variation in the current version of the Quartus II software. Many Altera IP cores support

automatic upgrade.
The upgrade process renames and preserves the existing variation file (

.v

, .

sv

, or

.vhd

) as

_

BAK.v

,

.sv

,

.vhd

in the project directory.
