Silicon Sculptor v4.60.1 Windows Release Notes
(Updated on Oct 13, 2006)
Silicon Sculptor Windows v4.60.1 is a service pack of the Silicon Sculptor
software for providing an Enhanced Integrity Test for RT54SX72S and RTSX72SU
devices.
You will have been informed of this release by email. Do not download
this release if you have not received an email instructing you to do
so.
Note:
RT54SX-S and RTSX-SU
Starting with the v4.50.0 release and including all subsequent releases,
RT54SX-S and RTSX-SU products require a Silicon Sculptor II programmer
to program. Programming RT54SX-S and RTSX-SU products with Silicon Sculptor
I has been discontinued.
SX-A
Starting with the v4.53.0 release and all subsequent releases, the programming
enhancement to SX-A devices is implemented with the enhancement previously
included in RT54SX-S and RTSX-SU devices. For all SX-A devices, new
AFMs are available with the Libero/Designer 6.2 SP1 release. The v4.53.0
release of the Silicon Sculptor software can take advantage of these
AFMs by automatically using new programming conditions previously only
available in the Rad Tolerant family of devices. You may continue to
use older AFMs because the software will automatically use the older
programming conditions in this case. Silicon Sculptor II must be used
to program with these new enhancements. A reduced but enhanced set
of programming conditions is used for programming all SX-A devices
on Silicon Sculptor I programmers.
