Error compiling Altera Uart 16550 IP Core Cyclone V

Hello, + Quartus 17 Prime Lite edition + Windows 7 64 bits + Altera 16550 Compatible UART I'm trying to use this module via avalon/axi bus. I added the module via qsys with no problems...

Hi,

I can't recall a figure. I believe Altera probably waved the license cost because we are a big customer. They still needed to provide us with the key for Quartus though. I don't think the cost was ever very high but Altera don't own that IP.

I can't remember any functionality issues without a license, only the inability to generate anything other than time limited SOF files.
