Using FFT Megacore function in QuartusII project itself

Hi all,

I just want to know if it is possible to use the VHDL code generated in MegaWizard Plug-in manager's FFT Megacore function in a QuartusII Project and program an altera DE2-115 board.

Say I have two signal to be compared, one of which is in frequency domain and the other is in time domain.

I need to do an FFT to this time domain signal.

In this case is it possible to use the FFT Megacore function generated VHDL code and program the Altera board.

Thanks,

Nadeem

    hmmmmmmm, what else are you then supposed to do with an fft core? The mother compiler is Quartus and she only accepts projects.

    Or have I not understood you Nadeem?

    Sorry, i think i have framed my question in the wrong way.

    The FFT core gives VHDL code and test bench that can be used in MATLAB, so the other ".vhd" file the core gives can it be used to program an altera DE2-115 board.
