3.4.1. Operational Modes

The Intel® Quartus® Prime software includes IP cores that you can use to control the operation mode of the multipliers. After entering the parameter settings with the IP Catalog, the Intel® Quartus® Prime software automatically configures the variable precision DSP block.

Altera provides two methods for implementing various modes of the Cyclone® V variable precision DSP block in a design—using the Intel® Quartus® Prime DSP IP cores and HDL inferring.

The following Intel® Quartus® Prime IP cores are supported for the Cyclone® V variable precision DSP blocks implementation:

  • LPM_MULT
  • ALTERA_MULT_ADD
  • ALTMULT_COMPLEX
  • ALTMEMMULT
