Can Quartus 11.0 use mega function IPs generated by Quartus 90?

selected device is EP4S820 for quartus 11.0,

and EP3S340 for quartus 9.0.

Can these mega function IPs used in previous projects(EP3S340) be used in

new project(EP4S820) seamless?

thanks!

    Hi,

    you should run the megawizard again setting the target family to StratixIV.

    Kind regards

    HI GPK,

    some IPs doesn't work according to your suggestions.

    for example, altmemphy changes a lot from 9.0 to 11.0....

    Some IP might change from one version to another

    Some IP might not support a different device/family

    Hence it's advisable to regenerate the IP

    Hi,

    I' not sure, but I would assume that the altmemphy implementation is technology depended. Therefore you have to re-run the megawizard, in order to adapt the IP

    to the choosen device family.

    Kind regards
