TICSPRO-SW: USB to I2C adapter

Part Number: TICSPRO-SW
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: USB2ANY

Hi Experts,

Asking your assistance on this query about TICSPRO-SW. For this tool, can we use a USB to I2C adapter other than a USBTOANY adapter? Customer has Aadvark adapter to use USB to I2C.

Thank you.

Regards,
Archie A.

    Hi Archie,

    Unfortunately we don't support Aardvark interface at this time. USB2ANY is (for now) the primary supported interface for the majority of devices.

    We've had this kind of request a few times since the logistics crunch started, and in a future version of TICS Pro (>6mo away) we have plans to support arbitrarily-defined interface libraries for communication as long as they define certain API functions (ReadRegister, WriteRegister, etc). In theory this should allow us to support I/O on any interface, including Aardvark, FTDI, or even microcontrollers/FPGAs on customer-defined PCBs (provided the interface library can manage its own PC-to-board connection details).

    There may be a possibility that we can include it sooner - I'm looking into that now, but I don't expect that to be possible sooner than two or three months out.

    Regards,

    Derek Payne
