1.1.4. Licensing the IP

The Quartus® Prime Pro Edition software installation includes the LVDS Tunneling Protocol and Interface IP in the Altera® FPGA IP library. The LVDS Tunneling Protocol and Interface IP requires purchase of a separate license for production use. For more information about the IP ordering code for licensing, contact Intel® Premier Support and quote ID #15017452494.

The Quartus® Prime software installs IP cores in the following locations by default:
