8 years agoMAX-10: IP core for UFM
I have instantiated the Altera on-chip flash IP core to use the MAX-10's UFM, but Quartus does not generate programming files since the one of the modules of the IP core is encrypted. I tried to use the IP core with Open core feature enabled (Evaluation Mode) but Quartus still does not generate the programming files. Any idea what may have gone wrong? Besides can anyone please also share where to contact Intel/Altera to get a quote for IP cores?

Hi,
Can you attach the Compiler report? Elaborate more on the steps and IP's used in your design. Refer below link for more information on Steps and IP licensing. https://www.altera.com/content/dam/altera-www/global/en_us/pdfs/literature/an/an320.pdf Best Regards, Anand Raj Shankar (This message was posted on behalf of Intel Corporation) - Altera_Forum

Compiler report attached. 2. This design is using Altera On-chip flash memory. After adding the IP using Qsys, I created a top level module that interfaced and instantiated the IP. And I am using standard edition of the Quartus with Open Core hardware evaluation mode enabled. - Altera_Forum

Hi,
Can't open the file. After compiling the project can you "right click" on "message window" and save the file and attach. Best Regards, Anand Raj Shankar (This message was posted on behalf of Intel Corporation) - Altera_Forum

Besides I still haven't figure out from where to buy IP core license? Have also looked at Self service licensing center but to no avail. Would appreciate guidance in this regard.

Hi Sarmad,
1. It's is a licensing issue. You design uses few IPs which required the license. 2. Contact your local sales or distributor. Some IP is free for evaluation. Contact your local sales or distributor for details. 3. You can try to get Free academic licenses for software and IP from below link. 1)license request ->University Program->click on academic licenses. https://www.altera.com/support/support-resources/support-centers/licensing.html https://www.altera.com/about/contact/contact/international-distributors.html Best Regards, Anand Raj Shankar (This message was posted on behalf of Intel Corporation) - Altera_Forum

Thanks Anand,
I contacted Cytech about six months ago but haven't got any response till yet. Contacted Terrasic, they very politely declined saying that they distribute hardware only. Contacted some otherdistributors as well this week and waiting for their response. Regarding free academic licenses for IP cores: placed a request and got license for IP bundle under University Program, but it didn't include On-chip flash memory IP and was told that University program does not include this IP core. I hope Intel reviews this since this is a very basic function IP. Regards Sarmad - Altera_Forum
