We need to program Altera PLDs on the end of a production line.
Using the full IDE involves re-registering the stuff every 3 months, which is impossibly awkward at the factory.
Does anyone know if there is a simpler program-only utility which doesn't require continuous re-licensing?

If you only need to programm the parts, not to sythensize, place and route them, then look for jamplayer. Other jtag tools should work too, if your parts are JTAG.

JAM Player. Just generate JAM files use them with command line JAM/STAPL Player (it is available free and includes source codes).

Hi David,
You can use the standalone programmer available from
This does not require a license, and has a much smaller footprint.
