5 Appendix 2: Installing SAM-BA® ISPP on a Linux® Distribution (Ubuntu 22.04+)

To install SAM-BA ISPP on a Linux distribution (Ubuntu 22.04+):

Open a terminal window in the relevant folder or open a terminal in the home directory.
Download SAM-BA for Linux from the Microchip SAM-BA Tools web page (see References), or directly from the terminal using the following command:
```
wget https://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/aemDocuments/documents/MPU32/ProductDocuments/SoftwareLibraries/Firmware/sam-ba_v3-9-2/sam-ba_v3.9.2-linux_x86_64-22.04.tar.gz
```
Extract the downloaded archive by executing the following command in the terminal:
```
tar -xvf sam-ba_v3.9.2-linux_x86_64-22.04.tar.gz
```

This creates a sam-ba_vx.x.x folder in the home directory.
