    The answer is in Article ID: 000076544. Essentially, in Quartus versions prior to 18.1 you need to create a quartus.ini file with the contents pgm_allow_mt25q=on. The other important piece of information is the quartus.ini file should reside in the bin64 folder for CLI to include the MT25Q configuration devices.

    Once these pieces are in place, you can successfully create a programming file through the command line interface.

    Thanks,

Hi,


Have you try to generate the .jic file using Quartus GUI? Is it working?


Also, can you try to use the latest Quartus version?

    Yes, it generates the jic file from within Quartus GUI environment.
