Overview

Congratulations on your purchase of a Microsemi device programmer. Your new device programmer is

designed to provide years of support for thousands of devices, with the use of optional socket cards.

Before you get started, take the time to carefully read the following instructions that guide you towards a

successful programming operation.

This Quickstart Card applies to the Microsemi Silicon Sculptor 4. Silicon Sculptor 4 is an FPGA

programming tool equipped to deliver high data throughput and promote ease of use. It incorporates

the industry’s widely accepted high-speed USB 2.0 standards bus communication, allowing as many as

twelve Silicon Sculptor 4 systems to be connected to a single PC through a series of nested high-speed

USB 2.0 hubs. It is a highly reliable programmer for Microsemi’s portfolio of FPGAs.

Procedure

Veriﬁcation of Calibration

Prior to operating the device, please ensure the device is in a working condition. Visit the

following website to verify your Silicon Sculptor 4 is calibrated and ready to use: https://

goo.gl/8HGpLM.

Setup

1. Download SculptW software from https://www.microsemi.com/product-directory/

programming/4979-silicon-sculptor.

2. Follow on-screen instructions to install SculptW software and restart your PC.

3. Provide power to the site by connecting the provided external 24 V switching power supply. The

programmer requires the input voltage to be accurate within ±5% to be operational. Conﬁrm that

the power supply is rated at least 90 W and 3.75 A. If the accompanying power supply is lost or

damaged, contact Microsemi for a replacement. Using an incompatible power supply may cause

damage to the programmer.

4. Directly connect the USB cable to type B USB port on back of programmer.

5. Directly connect the USB cable to type A USB port on PC. See the on-screen information to verify

the driver installation.

IMPORTANT!

The Found New Hardware Wizard launches for each individual programming site. You must

repeat a USB driver installation for each programming site. After installing the USB drivers, the PC

recognizes that the site(s) are connected at a later time. If a different USB port on the PC is used,

the Found New Hardware Wizard launches and installs new USB drivers.

6. After the USB driver installation, click Finish.

7. Verify that all USB drivers are loaded correctly, recognized by Windows and attached. The

programmer sites will be listed in Windows Device Manager. You can open the Device Manager

in Windows by accessing Windows Control Panel or with the Windows+Break keyboard

combination. Click the Hardware selection. Expand the BPM Microsystems node. There should

be a BPM Microsystems programmer site for each programmer site attached and turned on.

8. Insert socket module on the programmer.

9. Launch SculptW software by double-clicking on the SculptW desktop icon or selecting SculptW

from the Windows Start menu/Programs list. When running the software for the ﬁrst time after

installation, run the application as administrator.

10. Check the software screen to ensure that the software recognizes the programmer and socket

card. Otherwise, you must perform the conﬁgure operation. (Programmer, port, and socket card

should appear on the status bar of the SculptW software.). Wait for green pass LED to remain on.
