In addition to AS programming using a .jic, the Programmer supports direct programming of the quad SPI flash using
a .pof as shown in AS Programming Using Intel Quartus Prime or Third-Party Programmer.
Table 25. Output File Types
Programming File Type Extension Description
JTAG Indirect Configuration File
.jic The .jic enables serial flash programming via Intel FPGA JTAG pins. This file type is available
only for ASx4 configuration. A newly populated board using the ASx4 configuration scheme
requires initial SDM firmware programming. The helper SOF image provides the required SDM
firmware.
You initially use the JTAG cable to load a SDM Helper SOF into the Intel Agilex device. The SDM
can then load the flash device with the Intel Agilex design.
