2.3. Accessing Intel FPGA Design Examples

You can optionally base your design project on a pre-verified Intel FPGA design example that targets a specific Intel FPGA board or development kit, or you can start with an empty project. Access available design examples using any of the following methods:

  • Pre-installed design examples—you can immediately access the design examples that install along with the Intel® Quartus® Prime software installation at: <quartus>\acds\quartus\common\board_designs.
  • Online design examples—you can access design examples hosted online, which include designs from the Intel FPGA Design Store.
  • Downloaded design examples—you can access previously downloaded design examples, or any design example that you store in a local drive, under downloaded design examples.

The steps in this application note use the pre-installed Agilex - Nios V PIO LED Toggle Design to illustrate the board-aware flow.
