Preliminary
3. Implement the rest of your design using the design entry method of your choice.
4. Use the IP Toolbench-generated IP functional simulation model to verify the
operation of your design.
f For more information on IP functional simulation models, refer to the Simulating
Altera IP in Third-Party Simulation Tools chapter in volume 3 of the Quartus II Handbook.
5. Use the Quartus II software to compile your design.
1 You can also generate an OpenCore Plus time-limited programming file,
which you can use to verify the operation of your design in hardware.
6. Purchase a license for the POS-PHY Level 2 and 3 Compiler.
After you have purchased a license for the POS-PHY Level 2 and 3 compiler, the
design flow requires these additional steps:
1. Set up licensing.
2. Generate a programming file for the Altera ® device(s) on your board.
3. Program the Altera device(s) with the completed design.
4. Perform design verification.
POS-PHY Level 2 & 3 Walkthrough
This walkthrough explains how to create a POS-PHY Level 2 or 3 MegaCore function
using the Altera POS-PHY Level 2 and 3 Compiler IP Toolbench and the Quartus II
software. When you finish generating a POS-PHY Level 2 or 3 MegaCore function,
you can incorporate it into your overall project.
1 IP Toolbench only allows you to select legal combinations of parameters, and warns
you of any invalid configurations.
This walkthrough involves the following steps:
■ Create a New Quartus II Project
■ Launch IP Toolbench
■ Step 1: Parameterize
■ Step 2: Set Up Simulation
■ Step 3: Generate
Create a New Quartus II Project
You need to create a new Quartus II project with the New Project Wizard, which
specifies the working directory for the project, assigns the project name, and
designates the name of the top-level design entity.
To create a new project follow these steps:
