FlashPro Express
FlashPro Express is Microsemi's programming tool designed from the ground up to address secured programming assurance in production programming house environments. FlashPro Express supports SmartFusion2, IGLOO2, SmartFusion, IGLOO, ProASIC3, Fusion, and ProASICPLUS devices in the Windows OS environments and supports SmartFusion2 and IGLOO2 in the Linux OS environments. You can install FlashPro Express two ways:
· Integrated with Libero - FlashPro Express is installed automatically when Libero is installed. FlashPro express is used by Libero to perform the programming tasks, for SmartFusion2 and IGLOO2, as part of the design flow.
· Stand-Alone - FlashPro Express is also available as a stand alone installation. This mode is primarily used for production programming or lab programming on machines in which a full version of Libero is not required. When installed using the stand alone installation, FlashPro Express is joined by the predecessor product FlashPro.
View the detailed Install Instructions and System Requirements at the Flashpro Express software page: http://www.microsemi.com/products/fpga-soc/design-resources/programming/flashproexpress#overview
Secure Job Programming
Job programming is the concept of using a single file to program a Microsemi device or chain of Microsemi devices using encrypted bitstreams. The single job file contains all of the information necessary to setup FlashPro Express as well as the encrypted bitstream images for the devices in the job. Once a job file is created it can be handed off securely to production programming houses or contract engineering facilities to load the Microsemi images during manufacturing. Job projects can be exported from Libero and imported into stand alone FlashPro Express providing a clean delineation between design flow and production programming.
Migrating FlashPro Projects to FlashPro Express
Existing FlashPro projects (*.pro) files are now called Job Project files in FlashPro Express. These Job Projects can be opened with FlashPro Express to take advantage of Linux programming support and the simplified tool targeted for operators in a production floor environment. FlashPro projects that were created in single mode will not be supported with this tool. Microsemi recommends that you convert these projects to chain mode projects. To convert the project to a chain project, do the following steps:
1. Open the FlashPro project (*.pro) in FlashPro. 2. Locate the loaded STAPL file by one of two methods:
The log will print "STAPL file `<stapl_path>' has been loaded successfully." <stapl_path> is the location of the STAPL file loaded.
Within the Single Device Configuration Window there is a field STAPL_FILE_NAME, which displays the location of the STAPL file loaded.

3. Switch the project to chain mode by one of the two methods: a. Press the chain button from the toolbar.
b. From the Tools menu, select Mode->Chain Programming.
4. Load the STAPL file in chain mode by adding a Microsemi device in the chain. a. From the File menu, select Configuration->Add Microsemi Devices from Files.
b. Browse to the location of the STAPL file and click Open.
5. To save the project, from the File menu, select Save Project. 6. You may now open the project using FlashPro Express. When moving FlashPro project (*.pro) files to another machine, Microsemi recommends that you archive the entire project folder, copy it to the new machine, extract it locally, then load the job project within FlashPro Express. FlashPro Express will only open a job project if a programmer is connected to the machine, at least one Microsemi device has programmed enabled, and all enabled Microsemi devices have a bitstream file loaded.

Parallel Programming with FlashPro5/4/3/3X
Parallel programming enables you to program multiple Microsemi devices in parallel with multiple programmers. In parallel programming, all targeted devices are programmed with the same programming file (STAPL). The targeted device or chain configuration that is connected to each programmer must be identical. The FlashPro Express software together with the FlashPro5/4/3/3X programmers supports parallel programming via a USB port. You can connect up to sixteen FlashPro5/4/3/3X's to a PC via a USB v1.1 or a USB v2.0 port. FlashPro5/4/3/3X requires a self-powered hub. Connecting FlashPro5/4/3/3X (a USB v2.0 enabled programmer) to USB v1.1 port increases device programming time due to a slow data transfer rate on the USB v1.1 port in comparison to a USB v2.0 port. Note: FlashPro (USB/LPT1) or FlashPro Lite programmers do not support parallel programming. The following figure illustrates how you can connect a FlashPro5/4/3/3X programmer for parallel programming.

Figure 3 · Connecting a FlashPro5/4/3/3X Programmer An independent thread processes the STAPL file during parallel programming. In an Microsemi test, parallel programming is approximately five times faster than programming 16 devices sequentially. Note: Microsemi has tested Belkin PCI-USB cards and hubs. We have found that parallel programming
works best with the vendor's latest driver installed and with the matching hubs.
Chain Programming Tutorial
This tutorial demonstrates how to use FlashPro Express to program a multi-device, multi-programmer chain. This tutorial uses the production programming flow that exports a programming job from Libero SoC, which includes chain configuration, programmer settings, and bitstream files for programming, and creates a job project from a programming job. The figure below shows the chain used in this tutorial. M2S050T is device 1 and A3P250 is device 3. Device 1 is the first device to be programmed in the chain and device 2 is the last; device 3 is disabled and will not be programmed.

· FlashPro5/4/3X default TCK mode setting is Free running clock
TCK Setting (ForceTCK Frequency)
If Force TCK Frequency is checked (in the Programmer Setting) then the selected TCK value is set for the programmer and the Frequency statement in the PDB/STAPL file is ignored. Note: FlashPro Lite RevA supports only 4MHz on TCK.
Default TCK frequency
When the PDB/STAPL file or Chain does not exist, the default TCK frequency is set to 4MHz. In the Single Device File Programming mode, FlashPro Express will parse through the file and search for the "freq" keyword and the "MAX_FREQ" Note field, which are expected in all Microsemi flash device files. The FlashPro Express software uses the lesser value of the two as the default TCK frequency. In Chain Programming mode, when more than one Microsemi flash device is targeted in the chain, the FlashPro Express software passes through all of the files and searches for the "freq" keyword and the "MAX_FREQ" Note field. The FlashPro Express software uses the lesser value of all the TCK frequency settings and the "MAX_FREQ" Note field values.
Ping Programmers
To ping a programmer(s): Right-click a programmer and choose Ping. Note: You can click the Refresh/Rescan for Programmers button to quickly ping new programmers.

Chain Order

Chain Order
Chain Programming enables you to program several devices at one time. The order of devices in the chain imported from Job Project must match the physical chain to be programmed.
The TDO for the first device connects to the programmer, and the last device's TDI connects to the programmer. The devices in the chain go in order from a device's TDI into the next device's TDO, as shown in the figure below.

Figure 13 · Chain Order
Multiple Device Chain Programming
The FlashPro Express software enables direct chain programming without generating a chain STAPL file. Each device will be programmed in sequential order starting from device 1 to device N. See example below. For more information about chain order, see the Chain Order help topic. TDI > Device N > Device N-1 >... > Device 2 > Device 1 > TDO
Device Programming Compatibility
SmartFusion2, IGLOO2, SmartFusion, IGLOO, ProASIC3, Fusion families can be programmed in the same chain.
Programmer Support
FlashPro5/4/3/3X supports only SmartFusion2, IGLOO2, SmartFusion, IGLOO, ProASIC3, Fusion family devices. The Vpump on FlashPro5/4/3/3X is designed to support the programming of only one device. Please make sure that Vpump, Vcc and Vjtag are provided on board for chain programming. Connect the Vpump to the header as the Flashpro Express software will attempt to check for all external supplies, including Vpump, to ensure successful programming. There is no limitation to the chain length; however, ensure that the JTAG signal integrity and the timing are preserved.

FlashPro Express User's Guide

Exporting Tcl Scripts from within FlashPro Express
If you leave console_mode unspecified or set it to 'hide' FlashPro Express executes without a console window. If you want to leave the console window open you can run the script with the console_mode parameter set to 'show', as in the following example: <location of Microsemi software>/bin/FPExpress.exe script:foo.tcl console_mode:show logfile:foo.txt 2. If you want to pass arguments to the Tcl script from the command line, then use the "SCRIPT_ARGS"
variable as follows: <location of Microsemi software>/bin/FPExpress.exe SCRIPT:<filename> SCRIPT_ARGS:"param1 param2 param3" Arguments passed to a Tcl script can be accessed through the Tcl variables argc and argv. The example below demonstrates how a Tcl script accesses these arguments: puts "Script name: $argv0" puts "Number of arguments: $argc" set i 0 foreach arg $argv {
puts "Arg $i : $arg" incr i } Note: Script names can contain spaces if the script name is protected with double quotes: FPExpress script:"FPExpress tcl/foo 1.tcl"

The IDCODE of the target device does not match the expected value in the STAPL file. This is a JEDEC standard message.

The device targeted in the STAPL file does not match the device being programmed. User selected wrong device. Device TRST pin is grounded. Noise or reflections on one or more of the JTAG pins caused by the IR Bits reading it back incorrectly.

Choose the correct STAPL file and select the correct device. Measure JTAG pins and noise or reflection. TRST should be floating or tied high. Cut down the extra length of ground connection.

Unknown algorithm: alg=x, prev=x Invalid data read from device

This occurs with current STAPL files when the revision written into the factory row is not rev 1 for ProASICPLUS devices. The STAPL files from last year may "exit 7" with newer devices or the older revision may cause this failure if the STAPL file used is from latest version. This error can also occur if the programmer has trouble reading the factory row due to signal noise, crosstalk, or reflections on the JTAG signal and clock lines. It can occur if you program an -F ProASICPLUS device with an old STAPL file. This error occurs if you connected VPP and VPN the wrong way. It occurs if there are no bypass Caps on VPP VPN, which damaged the device.

Re-generate STAPL file from Designer 6.1 SP1. Double check VPP and VPN connections. Make sure VPP and VPN have correct bypass caps. Make sure that your power supply can deliver the correct current during programming.

This error may occur if your power supply cannot source the correct current for programming.

Exit Message

Possible Cause
FlashPro connects to PC parallel port through a dongle key. Data length mismatch when performing DRSCAN on STAPL file.

Possible Solution

Cable to target is not connected properly.

When the Analyze command is executed, the FlashPro looks for target devices. If the cable connection is wrong, FlashPro assumes that nothing is connected at all.

Confirm the connection between the header to the device. If the board supplies the power to the device, make sure the voltage level is correct.

Chain integrity test failed: xx

The connection between the FlashPro programmer and the device is broken. The programmer cable might not be securely inserted into the header. The header is not connected to the JTAG pins of the FPGA correctly. The configuration setting (ProASIC/ProASICPLUS) does not match the target device. Noise or reflections on the JTAG pins has caused communication between the programmer and the device to fail. A dongle is plugged in between the PC parallel port and the FlashPro parallel port cable.

Secure the connections. Check the JTAG pins for signal activity. Check for broken TDO, TMS, and TCK pins. After checking all type of connections if the failure exists, you may need to replace the first device (the devices closest to the TDO of the programming header) in the chain. Remove the dongle.

Could not connect to programmer on port lp1 or parallel port device does not support IEEE-1284 negotiation protocol

The remote device does not respond to the negotiation protocol, for a variety of reasons.

Make sure the port is connected. Make sure the connected device is a FlashPro/Lite programmer. Turn the programmer on. Check parallel port setting in BIOS. Make sure that there are no dongles in between the parallel port and the FlashPro connection. Try another parallel cable, the parallel cable might be defective. Check to see if the programmer is damaged. Make sure the FlashPro Lite has power. The FlashPro Lite is powered from the target board through the Vdd pin of the programming header. Make sure the Vdd pin is connected and the target board is powered up. Secure the connection between the cable connector and the programming header. Before you program any devices, you should run the self-diagnostic test. The diagnostic software can be found on the Microsemi web site. If the test fails, please contact Microsemi

Note: (2) Microsemi does not have operating temperature information for the FlashPro programmer. FlashPro is intended to be used as lab or production equipment and not tested at extreme temperatures. All devices in the unit are commercial temp. FlashPro4 went through a burn-in cycle operating at 100C for 250 hours during quality testing. This involved repeatedly powering the programmers and then programming after the burn in; they are not actively programming during the burn in.

FlashPro4

FlashPro4
The FlashPro4 output is supplied via a connector to which a detachable 10-pin cable is fitted. The connector on the FlashPro4 unit is a 2x5, RA male Header connector, which is manufactured by AMP and has a manufacturer's part number of 103310-1. This is a standard 2x5, 0.1 pitch connector which is keyed. Use the 10 pin right-angle header, AMP P/N 103310-1 (DigiKey P/N A26285-ND) for FlashPro4 and use the 10 pin straight header, AMP P/N 103308-1 (DigiKey P/N A26267-ND) for the straight version..
The signals on the pins of the FlashPro4 10-pin connector are shown in the figure below (extracted from FlashPro4 product specification):

If your design also uses a weak pulldown resistor on TRST on your board, then enabling the "Drive TRST" flag will be required to force the JTAG state-machine out of reset to permit programming to take place. With most boards, there is no need to select this flag.
FlashPro3
The FlashPro3 output is supplied via a connector to which a detachable 10-pin cable is fitted. The connector on the FlashPro3 unit is a 2x5, RA male Header connector, which is manufactured by AMP and has a manufacturer's part number of 103310-1.

Some designers of high-integrity boards (military and avionic) may arrange their boards so that TRST is tied to ground via a weak pull-down resistor. The purpose of this is to hold the JTAG state-machine in a reset state by default, so that even with TCK oscillating, some sudden ion bombardment or other electrical even will not suddenly throw the JTAG state-machine into an unknown state. If your design also uses a weak pulldown resistor on TRST on your board, then enabling the "Drive TRST" flag will be required to force the JTAG state-machine out of reset to permit programming to take place. With most boards, there is no need to select this flag.
