Hello All, 

 

What are the ways to find the CPU cycle count ? as in Performance counter , using timestamp. But both of these are not working in my case. 

 

Could anyone let me know the detailed settings in the SOPC builder along with Quartus settings to make this work.  

 

or if there any other solutions apart from these , pls let me know .  

 

 

Regards, 

Ravi MS
