Hi @EngWei_O_Intel,

I understand that you won't provide documentation nor support for direct use of the WYSIWYG component or any sub-component of the wizard-generated IP. That's an unfortunate policy, but so be it.

Can you please answer my question then regarding quartus/libraries/megafunctions/simple_iopll_stratix10.sv? This module, again, is not a sub-component of the wizard-generated IP. It is a different megafunction that could potentially serve a similar purpose, and exists independently of the wizard-generated IP. So, what's the status of this megafunction simple_iopll_stratix10.sv? is it functional? Is it supported?

Please let me know.

Thanks,
-Roee

    Hi Roee

    We don't recommend to individually instantiate the submodules from libraries that are not generated through Quartus IP Catalog or Platform Designer (qsys) tools. Every IP provided from Intel need to be instantiated through IP Catalog or Platform Designer tools. Beyond that we have to get in touch directly with Marketing or Engineering team for support. Thanks.
