14 years ago --- Quote Start --- Nothing changed in QSYS from SOPC examples. Use SOPC builder example and add same components and connections in QSYS. --- Quote End --- It would be so nice if this were the case, but unfortunately re-building the old SOPC designs in Qsys and recompiling in QuartusII 11.0 is not all that straight-forward and they usually fail on the first pass with cryptic errors that require a lot of time to track down. Fortunately I came across a new Web Server reference design for the Cyclone III NEEK kit that seems to have what I need in it. It is designed in version 11.0 of QuartusII/Qsys and seems to be very clean and well documented. It's the best reference design that I have seem from Altera. Hopefully there will be more like this to follow. I would like to know who designed it. Of course it does not work out of the box (I've yet to see anything from Altera that does). There's a missing definition in the main C source file that prevents the software from compiling. How could this be? I will be posting this in a separate thread shortly. Anyway, if you haven't seen it yet, here's a link to the reference design: http://www.altera.com/support/examples/nios2/exm-net-std-de.html
