Hi,


May I know the software edition (Pro/Standard) and version you are using? Could you share the design file for investigation?


Thanks

Best regards,

Hello KhaiY,

Thank you for your response.

I am facing issue with Quartus 18.1 Standard edition. But, in past, we faced similar type of issue with older Quartus version as well. And, that's what led us to find out some work-around for this!

Basically we are designing IP cores, mainly USB IP cores. Although other IP cores are in encrypted form, we have I2C master IP core which we are providing free of charge. If you can give me your email ID, I can request our sales team to share that component to you. It will contain RTL files as well as hw.tcl file. I am facing same issue with that as well. Hence, you can check at your end whether same issue is happening with you or not.

Thank you,

Bhaumik
