"Serial Loader Device is missing" during Convert Programming File with Quartus Prime


I try to convert multiple SRAM object (.sof) files to one JTAG indirect configuration file (.jic) using Quartus Prime, however I always receive the following error message.

Serial Flash Loader device is missing

Error Message and input files to convert

I use the Cyclone 10 LP Evaluation Kit


Solution

  • Apart from defining, which files to convert, also the flash loader itself has to be defined.

    1. Click on Flash Loader Adding a Flash Loader for a device

    2. Click on Add Device
