1.7.1. Step 1: Add the SDC and Root Partition

Follow these steps to add the .sdc file and the root_partition.qdb to the Consumer project.
  1. In the Intel® Quartus® Prime Pro Edition software, click File > Open Project and open the /Root_Partition_Reuse/Consumer/top.qpf project file.
  2. To add the .sdc file to the project, click Project > Add/Remove Files in Project.
  3. On the Files pane, click the browse (...) button near File name to locate and select the top.sdc file. Click Open, and then click OK.
  4. In the Design Partitions Window, specify a .qdb in Partition Database File to replace the root_partition logic.
