Increasing productivity with Quartus® II incremental compilation (PDF) |
This paper describes how an incremental compilation flow can improve your productivity when designing for high-density, high-performance FPGAs. |
This user guide describes block-based design flows, also known as modular or hierarchical design flows. These advanced flows enable the preservation of design blocks (or logic comprising a hierarchical design instance) within a project, and reuse of design blocks in other projects. |

Incremental Block-Based Compilation in the Quartus® Prime Pro Software: Introduction (23 min online course) |
In this training, you will learn about incremental block-based compilation, the ability to partition your design and choose which parts should be reused in subsequent compilations. (Part 1 of 3) |
Incremental Block-Based Compilation in the Quartus® Prime Pro Software: Design Partitioning (43 min online course) |
This part of the training goes into detail on how to plan for design partitioning, guidelines for creating good partitions, and the Quartus Prime software tools used. (Part 2 of 3) |
Incremental Block-Based Compilation in the Quartus® Prime Pro Software: Timing Closure and Tips (22 min online course) |
This final part of the training provides general tips and tricks as well as a methodology for using the feature to close timing. |
Design Block Reuse in the Quartus® Prime Pro Software (44 min online course) |
This training covers design block reuse, the ability to partition your design, and provide parts of it to other projects or integrate complete or incomplete parts into your project. |
