Hi Sheng,

Option 3. you mention, results in "Can't find design entity <filename>" error. I cán see my TDF in the Quartus editor.

Trying to compile, results in "Top-level design entity <filename> is undefined" error.

Hi HansHolland,

Make sure that TDF is set as top level entity by right-clicking that file and click ''Set as Top-Level Entity''.

Also, make sure filename matched with the name after module.

Best regards,
Sheng
