Hi.

Do this version need any license?

Thank you.

No, the web version of Quartus 13.0sp1 does not require a license. Just install and run. It supports the DE1 board directly.

    Hi.

    I get the message when I open the QII.


    Would I face the same issue where the .sof file is not generated after compilation because of the web version?

    Thank you.

      Select the second option "Run the Quartus II software" when you install.

      You don't need or want the subscription version which requires a paid license, and
      I am assuming you are not using any purchased IP files so the third option does not apply.

      Once the web version is installed, it won't ask you again about licensing.

        Hi.

        Thank you for the advise.

        I have successfully install and run the software.

        Now I need to try to compile a Verilog code and load the code onto DE1 board.
