Installing and Licensing IP Cores
The Quartus II software includes the Altera IP Library. The library provides many useful IP core functions
for production use without additional license. You can fully evaluate any licensed Altera IP core in simulation
and in hardware until you are satisfied with its functionality and performance. Some Altera IP cores, such
as MegaCore
®
functions, require that you purchase a separate license for production use. After you purchase
a license, visit the Self Service Licensing Center to obtain a license number for any Altera product.

OpenCore Plus IP Evaluation
Altera's free OpenCore Plus feature allows you to evaluate licensed MegaCore IP cores in simulation and
hardware before purchase. You need only purchase a license for MegaCore IP cores if you decide to take
your design to production. OpenCore Plus supports the following evaluations:
• Simulate the behavior of a licensed IP core in your system.
• Verify the functionality, size, and speed of the IP core quickly and easily.
• Generate time-limited device programming files for designs that include IP cores.
