Quartus

[SouzanaP]

Hello, We recently purchased the latest version of Quartus and we have a few questions:

1. Are the design security features available for v12.1 Quartus?
2. Do we have to enable backward compatibility (How do we know which features will not work for earlier versions e.g. v12.1?)
3. We need to understand if the encryption tool is enabled and if not, what do we need to do to ensure that it gets enable?

Thank you

Quartus v12.1 is not downloadable anymore and we do not support this version anymore.

May I know is the NDA is being processed?

[SouzanaP]

Good morning. We wrote to Digi-Key (the partner that we bought the software from) and requested an NDA last Friday. We followed up with a call and a detailed email yesterday. I will keep you updated. Thank you very much

[SouzanaP]

Hello,

Just a small question please. Is it at all possible to find out if the NDA could be progressed with Intel directly rather than via Digi-Key?

Thank you

Best Regards

Distributor should have Intel FAE to help them with the NDA.

You can ask the distributor to contact their FAE.

Please kindly help to ask Digikey to contact Arrow/Macnica.
