Quartus edition requirement for MAX10 DD device - Quartus edition requirement for MAX10 DD device Hi Sir, A we know Quartus lite edition are free and can support MAX10 device compilation. In our reference CRB code base, there is an MAX1050DD device there. We could not find MAX1050DD device at the device family inside Quartus lite, but it's strange that compilation about the reference code is still fine without error prompting to get the bit stream, sof. Pls altera/intel help where we can find the device file that Quartus lite can find the device family. Pls altera/intel comments how we can judge whether the MAX1050DD compiled bit stream is valid or not to use from the Quartus lite edition. Thanks.

To add on: CentOS OS support has been deprecated and removed, starting from Quartus version 22.1. To check OS support for Quartus, please refer to the webpage below or review the release notes for the specific Quartus version: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/programmable/support-resources/design-software/os-support.html#tab-blade-5-5 https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/docs/programmable/683593/22-1/operating-system-support.html Do note you may try to install on the non-supported OS but you will have to bear your own risk and there will be no technical support as well. ------------- The detailed Quartus comparison is here: https://www.intel.la/content/dam/www/central-libraries/us/en/documents/2023-11/quartus-prime-comparison-infographic.pdf Both Quartus Lite and Standard editions support MAX 10 devices. Regards, Richard Tan Replies: Re: Quartus edition requirement for MAX10 DD device Hi Frank and Richard, Thanks you all. I had downloaded 22.1 and 24.1 lite edition, and both are installed fine. DD device is recognized fine as well. Replies: Re: Quartus edition requirement for MAX10 DD device Hi, as stated above, you need Quartus 22.1 or newer for MAX10 DD. According to release notes, CentOS 8.2 is required for Quartus 22.1 Linux version. Later Quartus versions seem no to support CentOS at all. I notice that CentOS 7.9 support ended mid 2024, you may want to rearrange your tool chain anyway. I'd think about moving to recent Ubuntu version. I'd start however with a quick try if Quartus 22.1 is running under Centos 7.9 although not officially supported. Regarding MAX10 and Cyclone series support, there's no difference between Quartus Std and Lite version. Best regards Frank Replies: Re: Quartus edition requirement for MAX10 DD device Hi FvM & RichardTanSY_Altera, Thanks for your comments !! Since our develop environment is within centos 7.9 x64. The original project is started at 21.1 Currently, i'm testing above projects on lite edition Linux version 21.1.1 I'm not sure which latest version shall be installed fine under centos 7.9 x64. Are there difference of device file between standard or lite edition on 21.1.1 ? Is it possible to alter device file from lite to standard to make quartus lite 21.1.1 recognize that max1050dd device ? Thank you all. Replies: Re: Quartus edition requirement for MAX10 DD device Thank you FvM for the answer. Hi @Trowa , Which Quartus Lite version are you using? As mentioned by FvM, the MAX10 DD device is supported starting from Quartus version 22.1 onwards. I recommend to install the latest Quartus Lite version. https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/software-kit/849770/intel-quartus-prime-lite-edition-design-software-version-24-1-for-windows.html Regards, Richard Tan Replies: Re: Quartus edition requirement for MAX10 DD device Hi, MAX10 DD types are supported since Quartus 22.1, as far as I see also in Quartus Lite. I checked with most recent 24.1 Lite. Regards Frank - 2025-08-10
