Watch this space for updates: We're working with the folks at to build a fast in-browser simulation of the 4004. Happy 50th Anniverary to the Intel 4004 microprocessor! Our first interactiveĮxhibit was commissioned by the Intel Museum in 2005. Quartus II Installation Tutorial on Ubuntu 8.Our mission is to make computer science and digital electronics accessible to students, hobbyists, and the curious public around the world.

Intel FPGAs and Programmable Devices official website.The Pro Edition supports only the latest FPGA devices. The Standard Edition supports an extensive number of FPGA devices but requires a license. The low-cost Cyclone family of FPGAs is fully supported by this edition, as well as the MAX family of CPLDs, meaning small developers and educational institutions have no overheads from the cost of development software. This edition provided compilation and programming for a limited number of Intel FPGA devices. The Lite Edition is a free version of Quartus Prime that can be downloaded for free. Generation of JAM/STAPL files for JTAG in-circuit device programmers.External memory interface toolkit, which identifies calibration issues and measures the margins for each DQS signal.DSP Builder, a tool that creates a seamless bridge between the MATLAB/Simulink tool and Quartus Prime software, so FPGA designers have the algorithm development, simulation, and verification capabilities of MATLAB/Simulink system-level design tools.SoCEDS, a set of development tools, utility programs, run-time software, and application examples to help you develop software for SoC FPGA embedded systems.Platform Designer (previously QSys, previously SOPC Builder), a tool that eliminates manual system integration tasks by automatically generating interconnect logic and creating a testbench to verify functionality.
