Altera FPGAs are primarily programmed and configured using the Quartus Prime design software (formerly Quartus II).
Drivers for the USB-Blaster are typically included within the installation directory of the Quartus Prime software. They must be manually installed via the Device Manager on Windows systems.
The Nios V processor is a soft intellectual property (IP) processor based on the RISC-V specification, designed to be implemented within Altera FPGA fabric.
Yes, documentation for legacy families such as Cyclone, Arria, and Stratix series is available through the Altera documentation archives or the Intel FPGA support resources.
