The GSFI (Generic Serial Flash Interface) Intel® FPGA IP provides access to Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) flash devices. To control EPCQ128ASI16N flash device you can use GSFI IP. GSFI is available in Quartus pro version only. In Quartus standard use the Altera Generic Quad SPI Controller 2.

I have Quartus Prime Standard edition 21.1. also my FPGA is Cyclone IV (EP4CGX150CF23C8).
Regarding the Altera Generic Quad SPI Controller 2 look at page 262:
Even EPCQA device (EPCQ128ASI16N) is not mentioned still probably this core need a quad mode of AS.
Also in Platform designer this core is greyed (when 'Show IP for all device families' is marked):
And it simply disappeared when marked 'Show IP for active device family'.
As I understand Cyclone IV is not supporting ASx4 mode.
Thank you
Alex
