--- Quote Start --- I am working on porting netlists from Xilinx ISE to Altera Quartus III. Can anyone help me in fixing this issue? Is there a converter or any software to convert Xilinx compatible netlist to Altera compatible one?? --- Quote End --- What do you mean by a netlist? What you should really have is the original source code in Verilog or VHDL format. You would then change the Xilinx IP for equivalent Altera IP and then resynthesize. Cheers, Dave - Altera_Forum

Hi,
i have the same question. I have a NGD netlist file, is it possible to port it to Altera device such as for example Cyclone III ? best regards madness - Altera_Forum

Almost definitely not. You really need the source code.

Hi,
sorry i have a *.NGC file, when googling: The NGC file is a netlist that contains both logical design data and constraints This file replaces both EDIF(*1) and NCF(*2) files. *1: EDIF = Electronic Data Interchange Format. An industry standard file format for specifying a design netlist. *2: NCF = Netlist Constraints File. This constraints file is commonly used to define constraints for schematic editors and third-party tools ---- That's too bad :P Thanks for your reply best regards - Altera_Forum

How about importing it to other EDA synthesizer (let's assume that it's all just VHDL), and then export it to some kind of altera file ?
best regards
