Customizing and Generating IP Cores
You can customize IP cores to support a wide variety of applications. The Quartus II IP Catalog displays
IP cores available for the current target device. The parameter editor guides you to set parameter values
for optional ports, features, and output files.
To customize and generate a custom IP core variation, follow these steps:
1. In the IP Catalog (Tools > IP Catalog), locate and double-click the name of the IP core to customize.
The parameter editor appears.
2. Specify a top-level name for your custom IP variation. This name identifies the IP core variation files
in your project. If prompted, also specify the target Altera device family and output file HDL
preference. Click OK.
3. Specify the desired parameters, output, and options for your IP core variation:
• Optionally select preset parameter values. Presets specify all initial parameter values for specific
applications (where provided).
• Specify parameters defining the IP core functionality, port configuration, and device-specific
features.
• Specify options for generation of a timing netlist, simulation model, testbench, or example design
(where applicable).
• Specify options for processing the IP core files in other EDA tools.
4. Click Finish or Generate to generate synthesis and other optional files matching your IP variation
specifications. The parameter editor generates the top-level
.qip
or
.qsys
IP variation file and HDL files
