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.
