@PaulaMaddox I didn't actually post to the forums yet, but I got it working. I had the FT600 board underneath the FPGA board and it did not work. I then tried it with the FT600 board on the top (because I wanted to probe it) and then it suddenly worked with the loopback test.
Great success for day one!
It's not clear what the problem with in the other configuration, but that can wait till another day.
SosElectronic má ve výprodeji za dobrou cenu #ftdi chipy FT232HL https://www.soselectronic.com/cz-cz/products/ftdi/ft232hl-tray-131285
Aujourd'hui au boulot #3615mavie : en attendant des mises à jour d'os propriétaires qui n'en finissaient pas je me suis rendu compte par hasard, et avec ravissement, qu' #openwrt avait été porté sur les bornes #wifi de #Ruckus ZF7372. Il se trouve que j'en ai une vingtaine qui dorment sur l'étagère pour cause d'obsolescence (programmée ?) suite au changement de notre contrôleur WiFi.
Aller hop: un petit #FTDI, minicom et un serveur #tftp sur la #xubuntu. Le plus long a été de déclipser le boîtier sans le casser (5 bonnes minutes), 1 minute pour brancher les câbles Dupont et 3 minutes pour flasher.
Et une bonne dose de satisfaction pour cette journée :)
I've been playing with the newer ATtiny IC recently and decided it was time to recreate #AVRFT234 (my small AVR ISP programmer using an #FTDI #FT234XD) as a low voltage #UPDI programmer. I'm calling it the #UPDIFT234 😄 .
Flashprog v1.2 is dubbed Quadruped Tortoise 🎉
Our new release is ready for #firmware / #BIOS / #UEFI flashing: https://flashprog.org/wiki/Flashprog/v1.2
It finally brings the first bits of multi i/o and QPI support. Owners of a #Dediprog SF600 will definitely want to try this! 😉 There's also a new driver for #FTDI FT4222H.
After the release is before the release, and we are currently looking for testers of new chipset support: Any testing around Intel Meteor Lake or AMD Zen 4 and beyond is most welcome!
I decided to build a DrawBridge, an #Arduino #Amiga #Floppy Disk Reader/Writer, see here: https://amiga.robsmithdev.co.uk/
For this, I bought a genuine #ArduinoNano and will use one of my old PC floppy drives.
First step was #soldering the CTS pin of the #SMD #FTDI chip to pin A2. This was a challenge because I didn't want to unsolder the pin headers which might've made it easier.
So, I used an enameled copper wire and fiddled it through a via.
No shorts, and least the diagnostic shows it works.
Success 🥳💪🏻 Using #Vice #vsid to play a #Commodore 64 psid file over usb through an #ftdi ft2232h on a #SwinSID. Audio out via the SwinSID #pwm output back into the linein of my PC. You are hearing 16Bit Machine 🎶 from the #HVSC
#c64 #retro #retrogames
Added custom code to vice to support this 😎
Also tried the the #SIDKickPico by #frntc but thats not playing clear sounds yet.
Ps. The bits spamming past are debug prints, no worries.
Got a spare #FTDI #ft2232h dev board lying around? Does it have all gpios available? Got a PC but no #Commodore64 but do have sid chips at hand? Try my adaptation of #SidBerry for FTDI to play sid files over #USB

#c64 #sid #hvsc
So what do you do when you want to play #commodore64 #sid tunes 🎶 on your PC but don't want to use software only?
Today (and earlier) I made a modified version of #SidBerry by Gianluca Ghettini usinf an #FTDI #ft2232h dev board I had lying around instead of a #RaspberryPI.
Far from finished, but the first tunes are already coming out. Source code will be available on my #Github after I tidy it up a bit!😎

Would need some help with #solaris #ftdi #serial #drawbridge and https://github.com/isoriano1968/ArduinoFloppyDiskReader it does not find the serial ports though device attached and I despair. Compiles fine on Solaris, now, but it looks like the device is not detected. SerialIO.cpp and Main.cpp need some c++ love.
I learnt something about serial connections the other day.
I want to make it so my TV automatically turns on and off with my HTPC. Since almost no desktop GPU supports HDMI-CEC I needed to look for another solution. Turns out the TV has a fully documented serial interface which allows me to control it, so I bought an FTDI usb to serial adapter.
Unfortunately, both the TV and the adapter have male connectors (pins) so I bought a gender changer as well.
Turns out, serial is kind of a mix between USB and Ethernet. Most of the time, it was used to connect a PC to a modem. But in my case the TV counts as a second PC. And if you want to connect a PC to another PC via serial, then you need a special crossed over "null modem" cable. So yeah, I ordered one now.
Взлом аппаратного ключа методом veni, vidi, vici
К одному очень дорогому оборудованию для работы управляющей программы нужен аппаратный ключ с зашитой датой, указывающей, когда право использования оборудования кончается. За ключи исправно платили заграничному вендору, но после санкций это стало невозможным и оборудование стало простаивать. Важно, что интернет не использовался для активации ключа. Значит всё необходимое в ключ зашито. Если корпус ключа открыть, то видна одна микросхема FT232R с небольшой обвязкой. Задача: Сделать так, чтобы можно было пользоваться оборудованием. Дистрибутив софта, требующего ключ, есть. Работает он под Windows. Просроченный ключ есть. Оборудованию около 10 лет. Ниже описан путь решения со всеми ошибками. Прочитать историю

Do you work for these assholes in the #UK?
Shame on your asshole! Enjoying your coffee time?
#FTDI in #uk is selling technology to #ruzzia to continue their attacks on #ukraine.
Absolutely shameful. We must boycott that asshole company.
We, the world should be selling nothing to those bastards. Not even clothes. No cheese, no beans, tortillas, avocado, nothing! Let them keep fighting with their own dirt. Because they came from that dust and they will become that dust.
They saying for them should really say fertilizer in Ukraine actually, but you get the point. No need to help them.
The most frustrating part is I only have the one #Apple #Newton DB-9 to mini DIN-8 cable and #Keyspan #USA-19HS and they worked with this same setup under #MacOSX years ago. That said, it probably has been 10 years now.
I'll need to locate a genuine #FTDI #USB #serial adapter to see if I get any different results, but that'll take more time and money.
So, my little brother has a #SnapCircuits LED MC module, which has a #PICAXE chip in it. I figured I could just hook it up to a #FTDI TTL-232R-3V3 adapter with the TX and RX logic inverted with FTPROG. However, it looks like the default program on it is using the Serial In port as GPIO? How can I force it to enter "programming mode"? The inverted signal is idle low as far as I understand, so it won't even be able to tell there is something connected?
Raspberry Pi's new Debug Probe
This is nice to see, although I already have a small collection of various USB to serial probes that goes back to actual 25 and 9-pin DIN connectors.(...)
