Title: VNCII Software examples for Microcontroller via SPI
Post by: mikemoy on April 04, 2022, 07:40:11 PM

Hi guys, new to using this V2DIP1-48 dev board.
I was able to find examples that get loaded onto the device here:
https://ftdichip.com/firmware/precompiled/

I was not able to find any sample code for the micros end to communicate with the VNC2-32L1C IC via SPI.

If there is would someone pleas be kind enough to point me in the right direction. If there is no, there must be documentation to explain whet to send it and how to receive from it.

Thank you!

Hello,

I believe this project will be able to help you https://www.ftdichip.com/Support/Documents/AppNotes/AN_195_Vinculum-II_UART_to_SPI_Master_Bridge.pdf (http://url).This demonstration application will bridge a VNC2 UART to the VNC2 SPI Master for controlling SPI slave devices. Data is transferrable in both directions.

The default SPI master parameters are SPI mode 0 with a 50kHz clock. Data will be sent MSB first.
The file may be used on 32, 48 or 64 pin packages.

also you should have a look at https://ftdichip.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/AN_142_Vinculum-II_Tool_Chain_Getting_Started_Guide.pdf (http://url).

all of our VNC2 documentation can be found on the product page, under the documents tab https://ftdichip.com/products/vnc2-48q1c/ (http://url) .

Best Regards
