Deep Learning HDL Toolbox + Quartus Pro 23.3

Hi!

I'm trying to build - dlhdl.buildProcessor for Altera SoC

1 % set path

hdlsetuptoolpath('ToolName', 'Altera Quartus II','ToolPath', 'C:\Altera\23.3\quartus\bin64\quartus.exe');

%test !quartus - it's ok

2 % Setup my DL Processor

customhPC = dlhdl.ProcessorConfig;

customhPC.ProcessorDataType = 'int8';

customhPC.TargetPlatform = 'Intel Arria 10 SoC development kit';

3 % build

dlhdl.buildProcessor(customhPC) % and then I get an error:

- Error using downstream.tool.messageToolNotAvailable

Selected synthesis tool "Altera QUARTUS II" is not available on the system path.

For MATLAB 'Altera QUARTUS II' it's not equal 'Altera Quartus II' ??

(Win11 + R2024a)

Please check the HDL Coder supported version of Intel Quartus with R2024a and R2024b releases.

https://www.mathworks.com/help/releases/R2024a/hdlcoder/gs/language-and-tool-version-support.html

• Intel® Quartus® Prime Standard 22.1.1
• Intel Quartus Pro 22.4

https://www.mathworks.com/help/releases/R2024b/hdlcoder/gs/language-and-tool-version-support.html

• Intel® Quartus® Prime Standard 22.1.1
• Intel Quartus Pro 23.3

In R2024b Deep Learning HDL Toolbox has been tested with:

• Xilinx Vivado® Design Suite 2023.1
• Intel Quartus® Prime Standard 22.1.1

The error message is unhelpful. I have reported it to the development team. Can you try the supported version? Do not hesitate to reach out to tech support for further assistance.

Thanks for the answer, yes I will try the version Intel Quartus Pro 22.4

HI Alexander, please try Intel® Quartus® Prime Standard 22.1.1 instead, it is because Deep Learning HDL Toolbox does not support Intel Quartus Pro yet.
