Altera Quartus

Altera Quartus is software developed by Intel (formerly Altera) used for designing and programming FPGAs (Field-Programmable Gate Arrays), which are flexible integrated circuits. Quartus allows engineers to create and simulate digital circuits, helping them visualize how their designs will work. With tools for writing code, testing, and optimizing designs, it supports various programming languages, like VHDL and Verilog. Once the design is finalized, Quartus can program the FPGA to perform specific tasks, making it essential for developing custom hardware solutions in electronics, telecommunications, and other fields requiring tailored computing power.
