    Hi CSegu,

    Happy New Year to you. Which Quartus Prime version are you using to generate the .jic file for EPCQ128A? The Quartus Convert Programming File setting screen shot that you provided was set to EPCQ128 which is a different flash from EPCQ128A device. In AN822 document has mentioned the EPCQA flash device are supported starting from Quartus Prime Standard v17.1. Thus you should be using Quartus Prime Standard v17.1 above to generate the correct programming files for EPCQ128A device.

Dear NYusof, Attached are the images Procedure.png and QuartusSettings showing settings for generating .jic file. I am using ASx1 with EPCQ128A. Why should bitstream be corrupted if I am able to successfully program FPGA via .sof file and JTAG ? How can I remove this corruption? Thanks, Regards, Clive
