Hello,
Have to ask technical experts a question. We use your prestigious company's FT232 for communication between master and slave computers through USB to RS232 serial port. We used the driver of FTDI, but we customized it our own driver by wrapping it outside of FTDI. Our drivers mainly include two inf files: FTDI Bus and FTDI Port. The matter is that the device manager is unable to recognize the COM port. Our Port cannot be displayed under the ports (COM and LPT) of device manager.
Currently, it can only be displayed on 2 sets of ASUS laptops ( Windows 11 Home Chinese version , Intel Core i3, X64) under the device manager ports (COM and LPT) . Tried other brands like Lenovo, Hua wei, Dell, Hassee, Haier, even if other same model of ASUS laptops but all failed, it won't work. Including desktop computers. This problem has been troubling us and we stuck here for a long time and needs to be solved urgently. Otherwise, the Labview program that is nearly finished will be unable to deploy to the client's machine due to this driver issue!
Please help, the sooner, the better!
Thank you very much!

Hi experts,
Thanks for your confirmation. About the library "LibFT4222" I used, I also need to double check with you, LibFT4222 supports the SCK performed with 40 MHz in SPI master mode, is that right? Thanks TonySH |

Hello,
I can confirmed that the maximum SCK in SPI Master mode is 40MHz. We will update the UMFT4222EV datasheet. Best Regards, FTDI Community |

Hi,
The source code for the FT60x Chip Configuration Programmer cannot be given out. could you please email support1@ftdichip.com? we can then discuss your issue further. Best Regards FTDI Community |

Hi experts,
I got a FTDI device module UMFT4222EV-D, my target are using a GPIO pin and a channel SPI with clock running as 40M Hz. So, I looked up the data sheet of the module UMFT4222EV and chipset FT4222, and found it supports different maximum clock frequency. In the "UMFT4222EV - USB2.0 to QuadSPI/I2C Bridge Development Module Datasheet Version 1.4" from the FTDI website. Quote 3 FT4222H Features and Enhancement In the "FT4222H USB2.0 TO QUADSPI/I2C BRIDGE IC Datasheet Version 1.5" from the FTDI website. Quote 4.1 Key Features There is 10MHz lost on UMFT4222EV-D device in master mode, what's going on the device? and for my target, which device I can use? Is there a suggestion? Thanks TonySH |

According to the documentation, after FT_SetChipConfiguration the device should reboot. “The device will restart after the chip configuration is written to the device.” (AN_379 D3XX Programmers Guide, page 45, Remarks). But it does not reboot, so it doesn't open again.(FT_DEVICE_NOT_FOUND)
Where can I get the source code for the "FT60x Chip Configuration Programmer" Thanks everyone. |

Hello.
After the FT_SetChipConfiguration command, I cannot close and reopen the FT600 device connected via USB 2. What could be the reason? Thank you. FT_CreateDeviceInfoList(&numDevs); FT_Create(ptDest->SerialNumber, FT_OPEN_BY_SERIAL_NUMBER, &HandleFtdi) FT_GetChipConfiguration(HandleFtdi, &oConfigurationData); oConfigurationData.FIFOClock = CONFIGURATION_FIFO_CLK::CONFIGURATION_FIFO_CLK_66; oConfigurationData.ChannelConfig = CONFIGURATION_CHANNEL_CONFIG_1; //CONFIGURATION_CHANNEL_CONFIG_1 oConfigurationData.FIFOMode = CONFIGURATION_FIFO_MODE_600; //CONFIGURATION_FIFO_MODE_600 oConfigurationData.PowerAttributes &= 0xBF; //0x40 is the flag of Self/Bus powered res = FT_SetChipConfiguration(HandleFtdi, &oConfigurationData); res = FT_Close(HandleFtdi); //res = 0: good! res = FT_Create(ptDest->SerialNumber, FT_OPEN_BY_SERIAL_NUMBER, &HandleFtdi); //error :: FT_DEVICE_NOT_FOUND |

Hello,
This issue has been root caused. Device manager can show “FTDI CHIP” as the driver provider. This means that, this driver can be installed by the installer provided in the package. In most of the cases, the installer is not required and WinUSB driver gets installed automatically. What we have observed is, the issue happens when the installer in the package is executed. The issue is due to GUID mismatch. The installer package is using a different ID, and this was causing the issue. We have updated the installer files to use the Microsoft default GUID so that the application can work independent of driver version. The updated package has been uploaded to our SFTP server. 1. Please uninstall the existing drivers from device manager. 2. Use the drivers from updated package. 3. Install the drivers either from device manager or by using the installer in the package. Please contact us if you would like to receive a beta of this update. Best Regards, FTDI Community |

I believe you can switch between UART and MPSSE (I2C/SPI/JTAG) modes in software using set_bit_mode USB control request but I don't know if it's exposed in FTDI drivers.

I worked with FT2232H directly through libusb, without FTDI drivers.
Here are notes from my code regarding latency timer: Set receive buffer latency timer (vendor-specific command) Latency Timer is used as a timeout to flush short packets of data back to the host The default is 16 ms, but it can be altered between 0 ms and 255 ms At 0 ms latency packet transfer is done on every high speed microframe (every 125 us) For MPSSE it's recommended to set it to the default 16 ms and use "send_immediate" command to send bytes back to host when required This approach seems to be working fine for FT2232H but with FT232H there seems to be a latency delay present on the first small packet transfer therefore latency is set to 1 This was observed while programming SPI flash and checking its status register value |
