Introduction to Altera IP Cores
Provides general information about Altera IP cores
Installing and Licensing IP Cores
The Altera IP Library provides many useful IP core functions for production use without purchasing an
additional license. You can evaluate any Altera ® IP core in simulation and compilation in the Quartus ® II
software using the OpenCore ® evaluation feature. Some Altera IP cores, such as MegaCore ® functions,
require that you purchase a separate license for production use. You can use the OpenCore Plus feature to
evaluate IP that requires purchase of an additional license until you are satisfied with the functionality and
performance. After you purchase a license, visit the Self Service Licensing Center to obtain a license
number for any Altera product.

Design Flow
Use the IP Catalog and parameter editor to define and instantiate complex IP cores. Using the GUI
ensures that you set all IP core ports and parameters properly.
If you are an expert user, and choose to configure the IP core directly through parameterized instantiation
in your design, refer to the port and parameter details. The details of these ports and parameters are
hidden in the parameter editor.
