Perpetual license Quartus II doesn't allow to build Cyclone V devices anymore.
We have been using Quartus II for certain smaller designs on Cyclone V for nearly 15 years now, but now, after re-generating the license again I can now still run Quartus II, but it gives me the error : Error (119013): Current license file does not support the 5CGTFD9E5F31C7 device. I can also still build all my Arria10 designs using Quartus Prime (for which we have separate licenses), so it's not an issue with the license server or license daemon. Can someone help me with this ?34Views0likes7CommentsUnable to Enrol into SSLC Due to Microsoft Authentication App Issue
Hello, I’m experiencing issues signing in to my Intel account to access my licenses. The login process requires the Microsoft Authentication App, but when I open the app, it displays “Action Required” and does not allow me to proceed. On the Intel website, the only available sign-in options are: Entering a code generated by the Microsoft Authenticator app Approving the sign-in request through the Microsoft Authenticator app Both options rely on the app, which is currently not working for me. As a result, I cannot sign in to my account. Could you please advise on how to resolve this issue or provide an alternative way to access my account? Thank you for your assistance.78Views0likes6CommentsRepeat of a Questa License Issue
Questa licenses generated since approximately January 29 (the last date I was able to help a student configure a properly generated license) have contained the following message in place of what I presume is the normal license key: ################################################################################ # FEATURE START # This is license file for Questasim*-Intel FPGA Starter Edition # Number of seat licenses is 1 # License Expires 02-Feb-2027 300 Your license version is outside the range of the contract. # FEATURE END ################################################################################ # End of Intel Corporation Software and/or Intellectual Property License File. Issued 02/02/2026 This appears to be the same thing that happened in December 2025, and may be a sign that the licensing site is down or suffering some issue.

Hi everyone, I need to use Quartus Prime Standard Edition 15.1 (15.1.0.185) for an older FPGA project, and I'm trying to understand how my company can obtain a valid license for this legacy version. Since Quartus 15.1 is no longer available on the current Altera/Intel download portal, could someone clarify how the licensing process works in a company environment? What is the usual internal process for arranging or retrieving a license for a legacy Quartus version? If the company does NOT have a prior license, is there still a way for the company to contact Altera/Intel sales or support to obtain a license for Quartus 15.1? Is there a specific Altera/Intel support channel, sales representative, or licensing portal that corporate customers must go through for legacy licensing? Any guidance on how other companies have coordinated this, would be extremely helpful. Thanks in advance!Solved57Views0likes3CommentsArria10 Platform Designer EMIF
Hi I am using platform designer with the Arria10. I have two DDR3 memory interfaces which use clock sharing so they should share the same clock domain. Platform designer inserts clock crossing logic when accessing the memory interface I do not source the system clock from. Is there anyway to prevent this? Regards, GraemeQuartus Eda_Writer keeps crashing
Quartus Prime v25 keeps crashing at the eda_writer step during the flow on Windows 11. I have tried different Quartus versions (II v13.1, Prime Lite v25, Prime Standard v25). All of them crashed at this step multiple times. Is this an issue with the design that I am trying to implement? I searched for this error on Google and I found a message that said it was a bug that was fixed in version 21.1. Strange that its still occuring now in v25 standard.

I have Quartus Prime Pro 25.3 installed. I also have the text editor option "Highlight similar instances of a selected word" checked. When I double click on a single word, the similar instances highlight (this is expected) but then when I go to scroll with my mouse, all the highlighting of the similar instances then disappears. It used to work properly in all previous versions where I could scroll to see all the highlighted similar instances, but now it doesn't work.Solved72Views0likes7CommentsSDC_ENTITY_FILE critical warnings
When building a platform designer based system using quartus pro 25.1 I see a number of the following warnings when running the fitter. Critical Warning(22304): SDC_ENTITY_FILE '../../phoenix/DesignFiles/platform_designer/ip/print_sys/pcc3e/pcc2e_print_memory/altera_reset_controller_1924/synth/altera_reset_controller.sdc' was not applied. No matching entity: 'altera_reset_controller' in library: 'altera_reset_controller_1924'. The altera_reset_controller is listed in the altera_reset_controller_1924 library under the quartus design units tab. Given this, why do these warnings occur? Kind regards, GraemeSolved46Views0likes5CommentsModelSim executable not found in C:/intelFPGA_lite/simulation/modelsim Error.
I am having this error message when attempting to run the model sim execution in the University Program VWF. My OS is windows 10, i5 processor. I am running the 23.1 software version. I am using the MAX10 10M50DAF484C7G device (DE10-Lite). from the reading that have done I need to go to tools, Options, EDA Tool Options, under the model sim tab I need to point it to the correct directory. When I search I have assigned the following directory: C:/intelFPGA_lite/simulation/modelsim I get to the modelsim folder and there are no further folders to go into, I have removed and reinstalled the software and I am having the same issue. What am I missing and how can I fix it?5.2KViews0likes5Comments
