7. (Optional) Perform timing analysis on your design by using one of the
Quartus II–supported EDA timing analysis tools.
8. (Optional) Perform timing simulation on your design by using one of
the Quartus II–supported EDA simulation tools.
9. (Optional) Perform board-level verification by using one of the
Quartus II–supported EDA board-level verification tools.
10. (Optional) Perform formal verification by using one of the Quartus II–
supported EDA formal verification tools to make sure that Quartus
post-fit netlist is equivalent to that of the synthesized netlist.
11. (Optional) Perform physical synthesis by using one of the Quartus II–
supported EDA physical synthesis tools.
Program the device by using programming files, the Programmer, and
Altera hardware; or convert programming files to other file formats for use
by other systems, such as embedded processors.
