Altera Integer Arithmetic IP - Manual (Page 8)

IP Catalog and Parameter Editor
The Quartus II IP Catalog (Tools > IP Catalog) and parameter editor help you easily customize and
integrate IP cores into your project. You can use the IP Catalog and parameter editor to select, customize,
and generate files representing your custom IP variation.
Note: The IP Catalog (Tools > IP Catalog) and parameter editor replace the MegaWizard
™ Plug-In
Manager for IP selection and parameterization, beginning in Quartus II software version 14.0. Use
the IP Catalog and parameter editor to locate and paramaterize Altera IP cores.
The IP Catalog lists IP cores available for your design. Double-click any IP core to launch the parameter
editor and generate files representing your IP variation. The parameter editor prompts you to specify an
IP variation name, optional ports, and output file generation options. The parameter editor generates a
top-level Qsys system file ( .qsys ) or Quartus II IP file ( .qip ) representing the IP core in your project. You
can also parameterize an IP variation without an open project.
Use the following features to help you quickly locate and select an IP core:
• Filter IP Catalog to Show IP for active device family or Show IP for all device families.
• Search to locate any full or partial IP core name in IP Catalog. Click Search for Partner IP, to access
partner IP information on the Altera website.
• Right-click an IP core name in IP Catalog to display details about supported devices, open the IP core's
installation folder, andor view links to documentation.
