This complete device programming tool allows the user to quickly and easily download designs to devices. The ispvm System supports both serial and Turbo isp- DOWNLOAD programming in a PC environment. The tool is built around a Windows-like GUI. The GUI is designed to allow users to automatically scan a system board, browse the built-in file manager and select the required JEDEC files for programming. This tool supports programming of all Lattice ISP devices and non-lattice devices that are compliant with the IEEE standard through a vendor-supplied SVF file. Version b and higher fully supports the IEEE 1532 programming standard as well. Basics A scan chain may include any IEEE compliant, programmable or non-programmable device. The same chain may also include programmable devices that are IEEE compliant but do not have boundary scan registers. This decision is based on the test methodology employed by the user. All scan chains use a simple four-wire TAP. Figure 1 demonstrates a simple scan chain. Programming information is provided to the ispvm System in the form of standard JEDEC files that are converted into the row and column fuse map. The programming flow shown in Figure 2 is the same regardless of the programming hardware used. 1 vmsys9_03

3 IEEE 1532 Compliant Programming Tool ispvm System programming software version b, and later, generates ISC programming files for all Lattice ISC-compatible and compliant products. Additionally, this version of the ispvm System software accepts ISC programming files from non-lattice, ISC-compliant devices. By combining these various ISC programming files into a single programming data stream, the ispvm System supports multi-vendor, in-system programming of entire chains of ISC-compliant devices, a capability offered by no other PLD vendor. Two files are required for ISC-based programming: 1. ISC BSDL File - defines those extensions to the standard Boundary Scan Description Language (BSDL) File required to support the ISC programming flows and algorithms. The ISC BSDL File is device-specific (one file for each base part number). 2. ISC Data File - describes the data that will be programmed into an ISC-compliant device. The ISC Data File is design-specific (one ISC Data File for each unique customer logic design). ispvm System includes a JEDEC to ISC conversion feature, so you can create ISC data files from JEDEC. Lattice ISC Device Support Lattice device families fully compliant with the IEEE 1532 standard include the ispmach 4000B (2.5V), ispmach 4000C (1.8V) and ispmach 5000VG (3.3V) CPLD families. Lattice families compatible with the IEEE 1532 standard include the popular isplsi 5000VE (3.3V), ispmach 4A3 (3.3V), ispmach 4A5 (5V), isplsi 2000VE (3.3V), isplsi 2000VL (2.5V), and ispgdxv (3.3V) families. ispvm System Software The ispvm System is built around a Windows-like GUI. Any required JEDEC file may be selected using the built-in file manager. This software supports both serial and Turbo ispdownload programming of Lattice devices. Any non-lattice device compliant with the IEEE standard may be bypassed once its instruction register length is defined in the chain configuration file. Devices from other PLD vendors may be programmed through the vendorsupplied SVF file. ispvm System GUI The ispvm System window (Figure 3) consists of menus, a tool bar, edit bar, chain configuration window and status window. Figure 3. ispvm System Window Menus Tool Bar Edit Bar Chain Configuration Status Window ispvm Toolbar The ispvm System software toolbar (Figure 4) contains icons that allow you to perform processing operations without the need to use menu commands. 3

Status Window The Status Window displays the status of your chain configuration file process. Status Bar The Status Bar is displayed at the bottom of the ispvm System software window. The left area of the Status Bar describes actions of menu items as you use the arrow keys to navigate through menus. This area similarly shows messages that describe the actions of Toolbar and Edit Bar buttons as you move the mouse over the buttons. The right areas of the Status Bar indicate which keyboard keys are latched down. SVF Debugger Lattice s SVF File Debugger is a separate utility included with the ispvm System software, that is designed to help the user debug a Serial Vector Format (SVF) file. The SVF Debugger provides the facility, after initial programming, to edit, check syntax, debug and trace the process of the SVF file. About the SVF File The SVF file is the media for exchanging descriptions of high-level IEEE bus operations. The SVF file is an ASCII file that consists of a set of statements for scan operations and movement between different stable states. 7

8 SVF Debugger Options Several facilities within the SVF Debugger provide the ability to set options related to SVF device programming, to view the progress of SVF file processing, to set and remove breakpoint in an SVF file, and to edit the SVF file. About the SVF Debugger User Interface The SVF Debugger edit window (Figure 14) consists of Menus, Toolbar, SVF File and Status Bar. Figure 14.

ISP Engineering Kit - Model 300 Desktop Programmer: Software Interface Overview The ISP Engineering Kit - Model 300 programmer is a desktop engineering device programmer that supports prototype development by allowing single-device programming directly from a PC. The Model 300 programmer supports all ispjtag programmable devices produced by Lattice, with device V CC of 1.8, 2.5, 3.3 and 5V. Programming Software Support Interface software, residing on any PC running Windows 98, Windows 2000, Windows NT 4.0, or Windows XP, controls the programming process. This interface software is integral to Lattice's ispvm System version 9.0.4d and later. The Model 300 programmer is launched through the ispvm System software. With the exception of programmer power, the Model 300 programmer is controlled entirely by the programming software. The user simply selects the device, programming adapter configuration, and the target device V CC. LEDs indicate the power status and the selected V CC level. Figure 23. Model 300 User Interface 11

12 Hiding and Displaying Panels The user may save desktop space by shortening the main window and toggling the panel bars for devicce setup, hardware settings and status, as shown in Figure 24. Figure 24. Shortened Display Area To shorten the display area and hide one or more panels: Figure 25. Shortened Display Area - Hardware Setting Panel Toggled ON To shorten the display area and hide one or more panels: 1.
