Honored ContributorHi, Just got MAX II DEVELOPMENT Kit. What version of Quartus should I use. The kit contains 6.01 (and requires licence etc) I have download ver 9.0. The doc's in the kit are inconsistant as one letter says get the latest version, while another say use 6.01. ( when building examples with 9.0 I get lots of warnings) Thanks
Honored ContributorAltera sent me this: Regarding this issue, I would like to seek your understanding that MAXII Development Kits is a relatively old release products. The design examples for this development kits is developed in Quartus II v6.0 and v6.1. Thus, it is recommended customer to use Quartus II v6.0 or v6.1 to avoid unwanted error. (As you mentioned in appeared in Quartus II v9.0) However, if customer wish to have their own design implemented in this development kits, it is recommended that Quartus II v9.0 to be used for the design development purpose. The latest version of Quartus II software provide more advanced features as well as better user experience compared to Quartus II v6. Besides, the latest version software provide better supportability in future continuous development. Thank you for your understanding.
