1 IP cores older than Quartus II software version 12.0 do not support upgrade. Altera
verifies that the current version of the Quartus II software compiles the previous
version of each IP core. The
MegaCore IP Library Release Notes reports any verification
exceptions for MegaCore IP. The Quartus II Software and Device Support Release Notes
reports any verification exceptions for other IP cores. Altera does not verify
compilation for IP cores older than the previous two releases.
