1.5.1. Compiling and Testing the Design Using Agilex™ 3 FPGA and SoC C-Series Development Kit

To compile and run a demonstration test on the hardware design example, follow these steps:
  1. Ensure hardware design example generation is complete.
  2. Launch the Quartus® Prime Pro Edition software and open <project>/quartus/agi_dp_demo.qpf.
  3. On the Processing menu, click Start Compilation.
  4. Confirm successful compilation by verifying that the IP generates the bitstream file (.sof) and meets the timing requirements.
  5. Connect the DisplayPort TX connector on the development kit to a DisplayPort sink device, such as a video analyzer or a PC monitor. Connect the DisplayPort RX connector to the video source.

    The following diagram shows the Agilex™ 3 Development Kit with the DisplayPort connectors located on the right-hand side.

    Note: Due to limitation of GTS channels, the DisplayPort RX and TX interfaces are only populated with 2 lanes of signals. This is only a development kit limitation as the GTS channels are shared with other protocols.
