Installing and Licensing IP Cores
The Altera IP Library provides many useful IP core functions for your production use without purchasing
an additional license. Some Altera MegaCore

IP functions require that you purchase a separate license
for production use. However, the OpenCore

visit the Self Service Licensing Center to obtain a license number for any Altera product.
