Quartus Stratix® II GX Support

[MerlinSO]

I have been asked to work on an old project using a Stratix II GX FPGA (EP2SGX60EF1152C4). The original project was designed with version 8.0 Service Pack 1. I can't find any way of obtaining this ancient version now, and even if I did find it somewhere I suspect licensing it would be a problem. The project includes NIOS and other IP so moving to a much later version might be problematic. I don't think the current version (22.3) supports Stratix II GX anyway. Is there a table somewhere of which versions support what FPGA families? How do I find out which version to use?

Hi,

Stratix® II GX last supported on 13.0sp1 (https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/programmable/support-resources/download/quartus-max-plus-ii-software-discontinue-notice.html) check image below. And 13.0sp1 still available in FPGA Software Download Center.

As for discontinued software probably have to contact your Intel sales representative to request access check link https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/programmable/support-resources/download/legacy-software-discontinued-notice.html

Best Regards,
