Power Supply Support The Model 300 programmer requires 9V DC at 1A minimum, to provide power for the programmer itself and for programming the target device. A 9V power adapter is included with each kit. This power adapter accepts 110V to 220V inputs, and includes interchangeable physical plugs for use worldwide. Programming Software Support The Model 300 programmer is supported by both Diamond Programmer (version 3.0 and later), and the legacy ispVM System (version 9.0.4d and later) software. Diamond Programmer is available as a stand-alone download or bundled with Lattice DiamondTM Software, and is available from the Lattice website at http://www.latticesemi.com/Products/DesignSoftwareAndIP/ProgrammingAndConfigurationSw/Programmer.aspx. Lattice ispVM System is available from the Software archive section of the Lattice website at http://www.latticesemi.com/Support/SoftwareArchive.aspx. Special Features 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 VCC. LEDs indicate the power status and the selected VCC level. Installation Procedure To install the Model 300 programming software, install the latest version of ispVM System software. If you are running Windows NT or Windows 2000, you will need to install the ISP NT driver. The ispVM installation will prompt you to install the ISP NT driver. 2 ISP Engineering Kit - Model 300 Operation Procedure Setting Up the Hardware Before you can use the Model 300 programmer, you must connect a download cable to your PC.
