Need to install device with more I/O pins

Hi,

I am new to simulations in Quartus. The problem is that my design needs more I/O pins than what is available in any device. Some devices are labeled as 'not installed' devices and they offer more I/O pins but I don't know how I can install them.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

m-ary

Error: Design requires 820 I/O pad resources -- too many to fit in 506 available in the selected device or any device in the device family

    Hi,

    I assume that you use the Quartus Web edition. The Web edition supports not all available Devcies. If you really need the number of pins you have to use the full version of Quartus.

    Kind regards
