Using the Altera PLL IP

[MMosg]

​Hi,

I use Quartus II 15 and Cyclone V. When I try to use the Altera PLL then the Megawizard just stops and dissapears. If I try to use QSYS and instantiate the PLL here then I get two error messages:

Error: can't find package ::altera::generic_pll while executing "package require ::altera::generic_pll"

Error: An instance of Altera PLL could not be created. The component had an unexpected internal error.

Does anybody know what the reason for this is?

Sounds like you've got a bad install to me. I'd try uninstalling everything and re-installing and see if that clears it...

Thank you. I will try to reinstall everything.​

I'd suggest upgrading to the latest version, this error was fixed in the later versions. You may need to upgrade the IP used in the project after switching to new version.
