4.4.1. Simulation Levels

The Quartus® Prime Pro Edition software supports RTL and gate-level simulation in the supported EDA Simulators.

If you use the Questa* Intel® FPGA Edition Simulator in a design that includes deep levels of hierarchy, turn off the Maintain hierarchy EDA tools option. This action prevents the Compiler to generate a large number of module instances in post-fit or post-map netlist, thus exceeding the Questa* Intel® FPGA Edition instance limitation. To access this option, click Assignments > Settings > EDA Tool Settings > More Settings.
