Hi CChal,

I haven’t program a .jic into an ISSI 128Mbit.

However, in Quartus 19.1 version, we have a new feature which is we can defined our own flash device.

1. Go to File > Convert Programming File

2. On Programming file type, Select JTAG Indirect Configuration File (.jic)

3. Select “ … ” button (on the left of the Mode option)

4. Configuration Device windows pop-up

In this Configuration Device, you can define your own flash device and Quartus Programmer able to program withour error.

I think you can try to have a look at this new feature.

Unfortunately, there are two known issues regarding to this user-defined feature. Below are the workaround for these issues.

I hope this will help.

Thanks
