BPM Programmer
BP series
(11:36:56 PM) Lord_Nightmare: the main processor [of the bp1200] is an 80286-16, with a 32mhz xtal
(11:37:07 PM) Lord_Nightmare: [the board labeled] std48, it would [I assume] normally have [std48] printed on it nicely
(11:37:22 PM) Lord_Nightmare: this one was a refurbished unit and i guess they used an unprinted metal case for that pcb
(11:37:37 PM) Lord_Nightmare: std48 is the 'relay pcb'
(11:37:38 PM) digshadow: but whats the point
(11:37:52 PM) Lord_Nightmare: i think it controls which pins are powered with what [rail] but am not sure
(11:38:06 PM) digshadow: gotcha
(11:38:07 PM) Lord_Nightmare: the bp1200 it is a 'separate' pcb on top of the unit
(11:38:13 PM) digshadow: but its basically part of the unit right
(11:40:54 PM) Lord_Nightmare: the bp1600 has the 'relay board' integrated as a board which sits on top of the rest of the inside of the unit inside the case
(11:41:16 PM) Lord_Nightmare: i think the 1400 does as well
(11:41:33 PM) Lord_Nightmare: while on the 1200 it sat on top of the unit
(11:46:35 PM) Lord_Nightmare: the most basic bp unit was the bp-1148 "device programmer"
(11:46:55 PM) Lord_Nightmare: note the case is identical to the 1200, and the only difference [in appearance] is 'universal' is blacked out on the wording
(11:47:11 PM) Lord_Nightmare: http:vertassets.blob.core.windows.net/image/107fdcf5/107fdcf5-2dad-11d4-8c3d-009027de0829/bp1148.jpg
(11:47:46 PM) Lord_Nightmare: that picture is a mockup, the std48 'layer' is missing
(11:48:11 PM) Lord_Nightmare: http:thumbs.ebaystatic.com/d/l225/m/m1qMyAgqacqzlOo4KbeZLcw.jpg shows an actual 1148

- IF you get a TA-84 pin driver module (and a SM48D 48-pin DIP module, but NOT the one that comes with the BP-1148) it will convert your BP-1148 to a BP1200/84.

1400 has a 286 and the 1410 a 486
1600 supports 1.5V parts
5000 more devices (probably a lot more by now)

Silicon Sculptor
Actel programmers made by BPM.
As these cost less than the "real" BPM programmers, presumably can't be used with normal BPM software and/or work with other adapters
Silicon Sculptor 1
Has 2 headers (left/right) that adaptors plug into
Interface: parallel port
There is version with 1 connector and a version with 6 connectors

Actel Silicon Sculptor 3
Above: DO NOT TOUCH!
This appears to be a crippled BP-1410 (however, it has the front-panel button and the 512MB of RAM present in the BP-1710). No analysis has been done to figure out where the devices differ (firmware, FPGA, host, etc)

I love how they switched from roman numerals to Arabic numbers. Maybe they'll call the next one Silicon Sculptor D…
