What is a JIC file?

JIC files mostly belong to Quartus II by Altera. JIC files are cross-platform file formats utilized by Java programs.

  • Main Usage: JIC files primarily hold images that are utilized for program icons within a Java program, where the JIC file is also integrated with digital image compression specifications in order to reduce the allotted disk space of an image file. Additionally, JIC files are created with support to export these JIC files into more common and popular digital file formats such as JPG and PNG so that Java programs can display these images and graphics to the user. Essentially, JIC files contain PNG, JPG, or digital objects which consist of a larger image file stored within the JIC format, subsequently compressed similarly to a ZIP format.
  • Other Associations: JIC files are not exclusive to be Java Icon Files, as other file formats such as JTAG Indirect Configuration Files utilize the same suffix. These JIC files are configuration and development files that are related to the Altera Quartus II program, where they enable the indirect programming of an electronic device. Additionally, these JIC files are binary files that contain serial configuration device data for Altera software.
