Dear jeny38mark
Thank you so much this helps a lot ! Sorry to ask this but do you work for Altera and this can be taken as an "official statement" from Altera ? If no - do you have any documentation from Altera that states what you said ?
Also, besides the documentation that you referenced for the NIOS II DO-254 certifiable cores, does Altera have any info\documentation related to the standard NIOS and Classic NIOS cores and how they "comply" and or were developed to comply with the DO-254 assurance levels ?
Also you mentioned "Intel's Nios II processor has been developed to comply with DO-254 design assurance levels" for the standard NIOS and Classic NIOS cores to what DAL level were they developed ?
Bets regards
Shmuel
