9 years agoQuartus Prime Lite addition supports Cyclone devices: https://www.altera.com/products/design-software/fpga-design/quartus-prime/download.html. The name was changed from Quartus II to Quartus Prime a couple of years ago. It's the same tool, just a newer version.
By auto-detect, I am presuming you are referring to when you are going to program the device. It should be able to auto detect the device on the JTAG chain.
