1.5.2. Converting .jic Files to .jam Files in the Intel® Quartus® Prime Software

To convert a .jic to a .jam file in the Intel® Quartus® Prime software, perform the following steps:
  1. On the Tools menu, select Programmer.
  2. Click Add File. The Select Programming File dialog box appears.
  3. Browse to the .jic file you created in “Converting .sof to .jic Files in the Intel® Quartus® Prime Software” on page 11. Add more .jic files if you are programming multiple serial configuration devices.
  4. Click Open.
  5. Select Create/Update. In the File menu, scroll to Create JAM, SVF, or ISC File.
  6. The Create JAM, SVF, or ISC File dialog box appears.
  7. Click OK.

    To program the serial configuration device or devices with the .jam file that you created, add the file to the Intel® Quartus® Prime programmer window and perform the steps in “Programming Serial Configuration Devices Using the Intel® Quartus® Prime Programmer and .jam Files” on page 20.

Note: With the same steps outlined above, you can generate a .jbc or .svf file from the .jic file.
