Intel provides parameterizable IP cores, including LPMs, device-specific Intel FPGA IP cores, and IP available through the Intel® FPGA IP Partners Program (AMPPSM). You can use IP cores by instantiating them in your HDL code, or by inferring certain IP cores from generic HDL code.
You can instantiate an IP core in your HDL code with the IP Catalog and configure the IP core with the Parameter Editor, or instantiate the IP core using the port and parameter definition. The IP Catalog and Parameter Editor provide a graphical interface within the Intel® Quartus® Prime software to customize any available Intel FPGA IP core for the design.
The Synplify software also automatically recognizes certain types of HDL code, and infers the appropriate Intel FPGA IP core when an IP core provides optimal results. The Synplify software provides options to control inference of certain types of IP cores.
