Discussion - Hardware / Re: Force FT4232H to Full-Speed (12MBit)
« on: February 10, 2021, 02:41:40 PM »
Hello,

Does the device enumerate as Full-Speed when you are using this 6m long cable? Are you seeing stability issues?

Yes, attaching the device to a USB hub which only supports USB Full-Speed would force the device to enumerate as a Full-Speed peripheral.

Hello,

Please contact your local support team who can look into this further:

Discussion - Software / Re: Programming Altera Cylone II using FT232H

Hello,

I would suggest that you will need to contact Altera to determine support for 3rd party programmers with their products.
If you are trying to clone FPGA programmers that’s not something we can support.

Hello,

We are actively working with R&D to review FPGA timing.

Our IC designer has confirmed that the timing we are using in our demo application is a known good reference:

You can also contact your local support team via email as it seems you have already been in contact before:

Hello,

Unfortunately we don't provide support for xc3sprog, or impact/Quartus tools.

You can find the link below for support with this tool:

Hello,


Yes that is correct, they can be programmed to pull low during USB suspend.
Unfortunately however they cannot be programmed to pull low when neither RD or WR are asserted.

Discussion - Hardware / Re: UM245R baud rate
« on: January 20, 2021, 12:41:26 PM »
Hello,

Thank you for the update, I'm glad it is working at lower baud rates now.
As mentioned the baud rate setting shouldn't have any affect on the FIFO interface, but if this issue reappears please let us know so we can investigate further.

Hello,

Yes that is correct when used in Input Mode, the input pins are pulled to VCCIO via internal 200kΩ resistors, so they will gently pull high unless driven by some external logic. These pins can be programmed to gently pull low during USB suspend (PWREN# = “1”) by setting an option in the internal EEPROM. But unfortunately you cannot disable the pull up entirely.

Hello,

This setting does in fact alter the USB descriptors presented to the USB host on enumeration, altering the host that the device is either Bus or Self powered. The USB spec requires that a device correctly identify itself to the USB host, so please ensure you have selected the correct setting for your configuration.

Forgetting to update the setting to reflect if you are using a bus powered or self powered design may result in enumeration issues for the device.

Discussion - Hardware / Re: UM245R - EPROM bus current limit setting
« on: January 19, 2021, 11:17:57 AM »
Hello,

The MaxPower Descriptor defines the maximum power that may be drawn by the peripheral from the USB host. The USB host will read this value during enumeration to determine if it can provide the desired current draw the device is requesting. If for example you change this setting to 500mA and the USB host cannot provide this much power to the device, then the device will not enumerate.

The MaxPower Descriptor relates to Bus Powered devices, when using a Self Powered design you can set this value to 0mA.

Discussion - Hardware / Re: UM245R baud rate
« on: January 19, 2021, 11:07:06 AM »
Hello,

The FT245R of which the UM245R is based upon provides a parallel FIFO interface as a COM port on the host machine, however as this IC implements a FIFO interface the baud rate settings are ignored.

It is curious that with your chosen terminal emulator the behaviour seems to vary with baud rate setting, what terminal are you using? And have you tried any other terminal emulators?

Hello,

Although the FT4222H uses a data byte of 8 bits, most SPI peripherals can still use this so long as you keep CS asserted as they still see this as one transfer.

It looks like this particular device has some kind of timeout if the clock sits low for more than 28ms but beyond that was there any other reason why it could not accept multiple bytes so long as CS is kept asserted?

MPSSE (for example the FT232H) would have been another option but can only do SPI modes 0 and 2 and it looks like this ADC may need mode 1.

Hello,

Unfortunately we don't have any experience with impact or Quartus (Altera) package.
These packages require specific hardware to program FPGAs as mentioned in an external forum that you have created:

https://forums.xilinx.com/t5/FPGA-Configuration/Programming-CPLD-XC95108-using-FT232H/m-p/1192066

If no-one else on this FTDI community website can help, it may be worthwhile contacting Altera.
Another community user already replied to one of your posts on this:

“Try UrJTAG

If you are trying to clone FPGA programmers that’s not something we can support.

The FT232H uses our standard VCP Drivers or D2XX Drivers.

Discussion - Software / Re: FT4222 Python Interface
« on: January 13, 2021, 04:33:19 PM »
Hello,

The LibFT4222 API return code 1000 is FT4222_DEVICE_NOT_SUPPORTED.

Which revision of silicon are you using?

Which mode are you using the device in? Which hardware are you using?

Which version of the D2xx driver are you using and which version of LibFT4222?
Note the following versions for the 64bit dlls and libs:

.\CDM v2.12.28 WHQL Certified\amd64
.\LibFT4222-v1.4.4\imports\LibFT4222\dll\amd64

This issue has never been reported before.
Have you tried the 32bit and 64bit dlls with the standard examples provided with LibFT4222? This would take the python aspect out of the equation, if you say that it’s a problem with our dll:

.\LibFT4222-v1.4.4\samples

Unfortunately we have no support for Python, but you can check out the following information with respect to the D2xx driver (not specifically LibFT4222):

It is possible implement the D2XX driver in python scripts.

The following imports are required:

import os
import sys
import ctypes

And the library can be loaded in the following manner:

class D2XXTest(object):
    def __init__(self):
        #Load driver binaries
        if sys.platform.startswith('linux'):
            self.d2xx = ctypes.cdll.LoadLibrary("libftd2xx.so")
        elif sys.platform.startswith('darwin'):
            self.d2xx = ctypes.cdll.LoadLibrary("libftd2xx.1.1.0.dylib")
        else:
            self.d2xx = ctypes.windll.LoadLibrary("ftd2xx")
        print 'D2XX library loaded OK'
        print
        sys.stdout.flush()

Also see some other Third Party Implementations:

https://pypi.org/project/pylibftdi/
https://pypi.org/project/pyftdi/

https://iosoft.blog/category/ftdi/ 
 
ctypes Wrapper for D2XX:
https://pypi.org/project/ftd2xx/

I found one for LibFT4222 also:
https://pypi.org/project/ft4222/

There also may be other FTDI Community users with Python knowledge and LibFT4222 who may be able to help you further.
