NIOS 2 First steps

Hi,

now as the tool chain is in place I tried to follow AN-717, but there is no NIOS 2 IP in my catalog.

I use Quartus Prime Lite V20.1, on Windows.

With best regards

Gerhard

    Hi,

    What is done for now:

    I installed Quartus Prime Lite 20.1.1 and do a sample procect, 'Blinky'. I get also the simulation running and all looks fine.

    I started a project for my own, using ATLPLL and some counters, ffs and somthing like this. Works out.

    I search a lot to find a way to get the NIOS 2 tool chain (Eclipse) running. OK, starts, no idea if it works.

    I try to find a tutorial and end up at AN-717. Great stuff, but I should add a NIOS II core from my IP catalog, but there is no !!!!

    Whats wrong now?

    I have another machine I installed Quartus some days ago, here without the NIOS 2 tool chain and no eclipse and same problem.

    ==> the installation of the NIOS 2 tool chain isn't the problem.

    So whar can I do now?

    Se my IP catalog here:

    With best regards

    Gerhard

      Hi @Gerhard56,

      Thank you for posting in Intel community forum and hope this message find you well, apologies for the delayed in response.
      Apologies for the inconvenient face,on the up catalog shows it that in the quartus tool?
      And for the user guide AN717, you are referring to steps 1.5.5.3?

      For that steps you will be able to find the NIOS II core in the Platform designer ip catalog.
      Please do let me know if I misunderstand the your situation.


      Warm regards.
