Using Clear Box Generator
You can use clear box generator, a command-line executable, to configure parameters that are in the
Altera Temperature Sensor IP core parameter editor. The clear box generator creates or modifies custom
IP core variations, which you can instantiate in a design file. The clear box generator generates IP core
variation file in Verilog HDL or VHDL format.
Note: Arria 10 Altera Temperature Sensor IP core does not support clear box generation format.
To generate the Altera Temperature Sensor IP core using the clear box generator, perform the following
steps:
1. Create a text file (.txt) that contains your clear box ports and parameter settings in your working
directory.
For example,
c:\altera\10.0\quartus\work\sample_param_test.txt.
This figure shows a sample text file to generate the Altera Temperature Sensor IP core.
