Hi, 

I am a newbie in QuartusII and ModelSim, and I would have to make a general question. 

In QuartusII can I do the same simulations that can be done with ModelSim? 

That is, starting from the code, apply the input signals and see the temporal evolution of the outputs? 

 

Thanks to all.

Quartus II is a tool that produce a downloadable code in order to configure FPGA with the code you've described. 

In order to simulate you still need to use a simulator tool like modelsim. 

After version 9.1 in Quartus II the internal simulator do not exist anymore, so you need to use external ones (that can be linked).

Hi, 

 

I have installed Quartus web edition but I am unable to link the modelsim exe to it. Please can someone define the procedure?

Depending on versions, etc., there's a walkthrough here that might help. I'm new to the forums, so can't post a link, but search altera.com for "Getting Started with Quartus II Simulation Using the ModelSim-Altera Software", and it will be the first search result.
