-The examples here show various firmware examples and also various ways to
-start new firmware projects as well as various ways to start communicating with your device.
-In addition, you can look at the fx2.mk include and the example project Makefiles
-to see how you might set up your own project.
-
-For simple examples, you can ignore the link warnings. (Those pertain to the usb jump table
-and device descriptor areas and are not used for all examples)
-
-You can move up the food chain of programming languages pretty quickly if you like:
-
- C: Program Your Firmware
- C++: Write a libusb driver
- Python: Write Bindings for your driver so you can test things interactively!
-
-fx2:
- An example firmware loader and basic firmware terminal using the above strategy.
- Requires libusb-1.0, Python 2.5
-
- Installation:
- cd fx2
- python setup.py install
-
-
- Use the fx2load w/ reset_bix function to load firmware onto a device.
- Example:
- python
- > from fx2load import *
- > openfx2()
- > reset_bix('<path to bix file>')
- > f.do_usb_command (.....
- > f.ep_bulk(......
-
- There is also an fx2load script for doing the same thing with the command line.
-
-eeprom:
- Simple firmware for reading and writing information from the eeprom. The client.py
- file contains a function to read an existing prom image.
-
-
-lights:
- A really simple program that cycles the lights on the CY3864 development board.
-
-bulkloop:
- Demonstrations:
- * looping data on endpoints.
- * Custom device descriptor.
- * Vendor commands.
- * Usb jump table.
- * serial IO
-
-i2c:
- A port of the Cypress i2c example.
-
-reset:
- Shows writing to the eeprom on the dev board. The included iic data is the default data
- on the dev board and you can use this program to reset your board back to the default
- state if you happen to write a non-working iic file to the device. You shouldn't
- probably use this on a real board unless you really know what you're doing :)
-
-
-serial:
- A simple terminal echo firmware. Echos whatever you type back to the serial terminal.
-
-timers:
- Demonstrates setting up timers t0, t1, and t2 to be 16 bit counters and also demonstrates
- installing interrupts to process the timer overlow.
