9 years ago --- Quote Start --- Good point. I suspect that the Lite Edition is only meant for Cyclone V devices since it is the only valid combo (OpenCL + Lite). I think it is best to check with Altera on the licensing option - I could be wrong here. --- Quote End --- That's exactly my setup: I have a DE0-Nano-SoC based on Cyclone V for learning purposes. I managed to install Quartus Prime Lite + OpenCL by downloading "Intel FPGA SDK for OpenCL" from the "Individual Files" section on the Quartus Prime Standard edition download page (a 400 MB download). Now, two problems remain: - About licensing, when I try to compile a OpenCL kernel: $ aoc hello_world.cl Could not acquire a valid license for the Intel(R) FPGA SDK for OpenCL(TM). I asked Altera support about licensing for this setup. Let's see what they say. - The linux_sd_card_image provided by the OpenCL SDK doesn't boot on the DE0-Nano. I probably will have to create my own OpenCL BSP, since the ones I found online were made for OpenCL 14, and I would like to use 16.1. I'll update this thread when/if I get these things to work. Thanks.
