Programming .jic to S25FL128S FLASH with Cyclone 10 LP device

At first, there was no problem when I downloaded my .jic file to S25FL128S. However, after operating the Flash through "Generic Serial Flash Interface Intel FPGA IP Core" (including writing and read...

Hi Bsui,

Did you try other Quartus programmer such as v18.1 to erase the S25FL128S? In the Quartus Prime v18.1, you should be able to generate the .jic file specifically for S25FL128 device and not EPCS128.

    Hi Nooraini，

    Thanks for you reply.

    I tried Quartus programmer v18.1 to generate a jic file specifically for S25FL128, still failed.

    I checked the issue with another FPGA board.

    1. At first, the jic file can be programmed into the S25FL128S.

    2. Then, I execute sector protect operation on S25FL128S with "Generic Serial Flash Interface Intel FPGA IP Core".

    3. Then, I failed to program the jic file into S25FL128S, which is expected due to the sector protect operation in step 2.

    4. I unprotect the S25FL128S with "Generic Serial Flash Interface Intel FPGA IP Core".

    5. Still, no way to download the jic into S25FL128S.

    I doubt if some register bits of S25FL128S is locked to prevent the programming operation after step3. Do you have any clue?

    Thx so much!

    Leo
