DE10-Lite and sdram controller ip

Hi,

I had the same Issue. For me the Eval Kit was quite useless without that IP core. I found the following temporary "solution" in https://community.altera.com/discussions/ip-and-transceiver/replacement-for-sdram-controller-after-v16-1/52218

Copy the IP core from an Old Quartus ( I think the last version where this core was supported is 18.1) version to the new Quartus version. /ip/altera/sopc_builder_ip/altera_avalon_new_sdram_controller

Additionally you need to modify the ip/altera/altera_component.ipx file. You have to add a few additional lines to that file.

These entries are taken from the old altera_component.ipx

This worked for me in Quartus 23.1 Lite
