Hello, last year there was a post concerning Altera abandoning AHDL in their new tools, such as Quartus. The post also said that you couldn't use AHDL with SOPC Builder or DSP Builder. If this is true, it seems to be a big constraint for the designer; then again, I have yet to use SOPC or DSP Builder. How then do you write custom logic, do you have to write everything in .vhdl or .verilog? I have a few co-workers who used DSP Builder, but couldn't get to work correctly, it required purchasing more software from Altera. They dropped DSP Builder and went back to AHDL coding. Is AHDL a thing of the past? Is a better approach SOPC and DSP Builder? If so, then I better start reading more about these tools. Any comments on AHDL, Altera, SOPC Builder, or DSP Building, please share them.
thanks, joe
