Hi all, I'm trying to get a product working that uses the FTDI FT232BM chipset to get USR/Serial translation. The device works fine with Windows drivers but not with the Mac drivers. Does anyone out there have any experience with the FTDI products and especially with Macintosh integrations that they would like to share? Thanks for listening, DLC -- ===============================...

Problem with sending a string from uC to PC using FTDI

Hello, I am using a FT232BL in order to connect a PIC18F2450 to a USB-PORT. The FTDI is using a 48MHZ and my serial port hat 9600 bis/s so I am using the baudrate 51. In order to test the FTDI-Device I am trying to send a string to a terminal (Hterm or Tera Term) but I just receive blanks "\n" :( Could you please help me to find the mistake in my code, thank you!!! #include

Hi I was just wondering if anyone had done any previous work, or seen any reference on how to connect PC MIDI over the serial FTDI usb chip. I have downloaded a roland serial midi driver, is this all I need to get midi to exit the FTDI chip into the CPLD? cheers jacko
Open Source (re)implementation of D2XX drivers for FTDI chips?

Hi All, I need to provide the USB connectivity for USB not capable microcontroller. The FTDI chips are the simplest and cheap solution. However the VCP drivers do not provide sufficient throughput. The D2XX do not, but they are not open source, so are usable only for a few platforms, for which FTDI has provided binaries of their library. Is there any Open Source equivalent of the D2XX driv...

Hi, I'm trying to use the GPI calls in FTDI's FTCSPI library, and I can't seem to make it work. My biggest headache is that I can't find any documentation on the following: -------------------------- FTC_STATUS Status = FTC_SUCCESS; FTC_HANDLE ftHandle; FTC_CHIP_SELECT_PINS ChipSelectsDisableStates; FTC_INPUT_OUTPUT_PINS HighInputOutputPins; // Set chip select pin states (ADBUS3 - ...

..Hello i'm trying first time to make my PC talking with a FTDI device FT232U. I had success using the VCOM mode,now i'm trying to use the FTD2XX.dll installed by CDM20814_Setup.exe. I can't link FT_ListDevices and FT_CreateDeviceInfoList neither,but there is no problem with FT_Open. Any hints? Thanks for attention, Diego

After hours of failed attempts i ask your help once more I'm writin a simple GUI interface ,working under Windows XP, to communicate with some existing boards mounting FTDI FT232RQ. At first i used the Virtual COM VCP drivers 2.08.14 ,everything worked fine,but now i need to use the FTD2XX.dll functions. Many function were working OK,as FT_ListDevices,FT_Open,FT_SetBaudRate,FT_Se...
FTDI driver installation problems

I found a similar problem in an earlier thread, but not really a solution... I am trying to install the FTDI FT232BM VCP driver on a Windows 98 system. The system won't "pick up" the driver. It recognizes the USB device (unknown) when I plug it in. It then insists on automatically attaching its own USB driver. I can tell it to "update driver" and point it to the directory where th...

I am trying to use a Vinculum VNC1L device to access USB Flash but am having some problems which look to me like the protocol is broken. Yes, I have contacted FTDI/Vinculum support but recent questions have gone unaswered (and unacknowledged). So I am asking here if anyone has experience of the device and its protocol? The story so far. * I have a board designed that has an NXP ARM, RA...

Hi, I've read several posts from different people in here stating they have used the FTDI parts successfully. I am considering the FT232R and my application needs very low latency (yes, USB and low-latency is an oxymoron). My data throughput is 3-4 bytes/message with minimum 400 us between each message, upto 40 s between a message. Data is semi-random, not always continuous. With...

I am having problems reading a FTDI 245 USB parallel chip into a PC. In the PC, I am using GetQueueStatus(), which returns the number of bytes in the rx queue, follwed by a read() which reads the bytes into a buffer. All within a self contained thread. I am using Microsoft C V7. The throughput rate is about 500Kbps, about half the maximum realisable. The problem is that every few seconds...

Hello, I've got a problem with the FTDI-chip FT2232 running under Linux: --------------------------- I have written a small test program for WinXP. The access to the FT2232 in FIFO-Mode occurs as expected. The porting to the Linux system was also successful. I use the Evaluationboard "EZ1CUSB 12" of EasyFPGA as hardware. The board has a USB connector, a FT2232 chip and a FPGA. Linux sy...
Debug DLL for FTDI D2XX ? Software USB Sniffer for D2XX communication ?

Hello, does someone know if there is a debug dll for FTDI D2XX ? I want to trace every call and every data packet which is exchanged over the DLL. There was something for CAPI (ISDN) long time ago, which i think should also work for D2XX. The original DLL was renamed and a new DLL was created which was just a wrapper and calls the original functions of the renamed DLL. Is such a thing...

Hello all I'm trying to read and write serial data with a FTDI chip (FT232R). I'm using the IC in Synchronous Bit Bang Mode using D0 as a CLK output and D1 as a DATA input/output. First i shall shift out 16 bits on DATA and then change it to an input and shift back 16 bits. I have successfully shifted out DATA but i have trouble reading back. Anyone here having any example code?...

My PC knowledge is more or less restricted to defraging the screen and virus checking the batteries I need to feed a 8051 bit of kit with the output from a PC keyboard, via RS232 or USB via an FTDI chip. It would be great if the user could be using something like Notepad, and still have the re direction Any recommendations? martin

I have a BS50 loaned to me for evaluation, but I have no disk. The manual is not clear about whether a special driver is needed or if it uses standard divers from FTDI. I sent an email over 24 hours ago and no response. I know they are in Australia so it can take a while to get a reply, but I would have expected something by now. They don't say if the "test drive" download is the fully f...
