Places and routes the device resources into the FPGA.
Not Available quartus_fit --retime 10 Enabled by default, and runs before finalizing. Moves existing registers into Hyper-Registers for fine-grained performance improvement.
Not Available quartus_fit --fastforward 10 Disabled by default. Runs after retime but before finalize. Generates detailed reports that estimate performance gains achievable by making specific RTL modifications.
report_timing quartus_sta Performs a static timing analysis on the design.
write_bitstream quartus_asm Generates programming file from post-place-and-route design.
report_power quartus_pow Performs power estimation on the design.

quartus_eda Generates output netlist files for use with other EDA tools.
write_checkpoint quartus_cdb Saves the snapshot of the design database.
Not Available quartus_sh --flow compile Automates the compilation flow.

For command line help on any of the インテル® Quartus® Prime executables, type <command-line executable> --help at the command prompt. A GUI-enabled help browser is also available that covers all インテル® Quartus® Prime command-line executables.
