3.7.3. Open the Tutorial Project

The design files for the Platform Designer tutorial provide the custom IP design blocks that you need, and a partially completed Intel® Quartus® Prime project and Platform Designer system.

The following design requirements are included in the Platform Designer tutorial design files:

  • Intel® Quartus® Prime project I/O pin assignments and Synopsys Design Constraint (.sdc) timing assignments for each supported development board.
  • Parameterized Nios® II processor core and software to communicate with the host PC that controls the memory test system that you develop.
  • Parameterized DDR SDRAM controller to use the memory on the development board.

To open the tutorial project:

  1. Open the Intel® Quartus® Prime software.
  2. To open the Intel® Quartus® Prime Project File (.qpf) for your board, click File > Open Project.
  3. Browse to the tt_qsys_design\quartus_ii_projects_for_boards\<development_board>\ directory.
  4. Select the relevant board-specific .qpf file, and then click Open.
