USB-SPI Adapter Driver

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TSW3003, DAC5687

Good afternoon,

I just bought the DAC5687EVM and it comes with an USB-SPI Adapter.

However, it looks like its driver just works with window XP. There is a driver for windows 7, or windows 7 compatible?

Or it is possible to convert it? As the technical support / updates for Windows XP are no longer available, it is not so good idea to continue based on windows xp...

It's that possible, or it is possible to use the original FTDI Drivers changing something?

Another point, later I will connect the DAC to a FPGA. So that, I would like to program the DAC directly throught the FPGA and not through USB in the Windows XP... Do you some files/documents/protocol that could help me with the programming? That would be great.

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,

Susana

Hello Susana,

Could you try the attached driver installation procedure for WIN7? We have tested this on the TSW3003 EVM (with DAC5687+TRF3703) on WIN7 and USB driver installed correctly.

Regarding the SPI programming directly from the FPGA to the DAC5687EVM, the EVM does not have an external direct connection to the SPI port of the DAC5687. If you really need to do so, you may need to remove U4 and solder down blue jumper wires from your FPGA EVM to pin 18, 16, 14, and 8/17 of U4 location.
