10 years agoHi,
I'm not sure if I understand you correctly - what's a "static pin table"? What you have to do is to use the "Pin Planner" (in the Quartus main menu in "Assignments") and assign each top-level symbol a pin. To do so, simply synthesize your project (only the synthesizer - the fitter and other steps are not required), then drag-and-drop each signal in the table in the pin-planner to the pin where you want it. Also, you should assign an I/O standard. I assume you're using a development board? If so, you might even have example projects to start with. Or you look up the function of each FPGA pin in the schematic of your board and do the assignments manually. You should assign every signal to a pin, otherwise Quartus will assign a random pin for undefined signals. You'll get a critical warning about that. Best regards, GooGooCluster
