Question

HI~XD

help me... please...

I don't know how I use Altera Flex10K50ETC-144-3 on Quartus2.

My board is very old version, It made 7years ago.

but, I have to upgrade it.

So, I installed Quartus2 4.0. and I knew that it don't assist the device.

There are a lot of Flex10K device, but Flex10K50ETC-144-3 is not exist.

erm... I saw Flex10K50STC-144-1 in selecting device combo box.

If I select Flex10K50STC-144-1, Can I use Flex10K50ETC-144-3 ??? :D

You might be better off downloading an old version of MaxPlus2.

Something from around 1999 seems OK v9.23 perhaps

Have a look at the versions here

The Flex 10KE family is supported in Quartus, even though you can't see the selection in the pull-down menus.

Just use a text editor to manually edit your QSF file. Set your family to "FLEX10KE" and your device to "EPF10K50ETC144-3":

set_global_assignment -name FAMILY "FLEX10KE"

set_global_assignment -name DEVICE "EPF10K50ETC144-3"

Don't edit the QSF while your project is open.
