The SmartFusion2 and IGLOO2 devices can be programmed before board assembly using Silicon
Sculptor 3. The SmartFusion2 or IGLOO2 device is inserted in an FPGA package specific adapter
module, which is then plugged into Silicon Sculptor 3.
Microsemi provides Silicon Sculptor 3 software or Sculptw that is used to run the programmer. For more
information, see the following web page: http://www.microsemi.com/products/fpga-soc/design-
resources/programming/silicon-sculptor-3
SmartFusion2 and IGLOO2 devices can also be programmed by automatic test equipment (ATE). The
Libero SoC software generates a serial vector format (SVF) file that is used for ATE programming.
Support for SVF format will be added in a future release. Contact the technical support team if you need
support for the SVF file format.
As part of production programming, serialization feature can be used. SmartFusion2 and IGLOO2
devices support serialization. For more information, see the Libero SoC or FlashPro Online Help.
