Altera FPGA generally will need Quartus II software to work with. You can download the Quartus II software from https://www.altera.com/downloads/download-center.html. There are web edition (free) and subscription edition (paid). Subscription edition will provide compilete feature of Quartus II.

If you would like to look for suitable Cyclone V development kit for testing, you can visit the following page:

In term of the development kit, probably you could consider the Cyclone V GX Starter Kit which is relatively cheaper as a start.

Do you know of a compatible ADC that I can use with the altera-de2 115. I'm trying to perform a feedback control for an interleaved boost converter
