    Hello Arun

    The TUSB3410 driver is included in the official Linux kernel that you can find in kernel.org. The easiest way to put this to work is recompile the kernel that you are using (we tested with the 2.6.24 kernel) so you can include the 3410 support in it as part of the kernel. The driver should be added in the menuconfig of the kernel under

     

    Device DriversàUSB supportàUSB Serial Converter supportà

     

    Select the <*>USB Serial Converter support to be compiled as part of the kernel, and then add the <*>USB TI 3410/5052 Serial driver as part of the kernel too.

     

    Please see the following screenshot:

     

     

     

    Once you recompile the kernel and you are able to boot with the new kernel version you need to create a rule file as follows:

     

    In the directory /etc/udev/rules.d/ create a file with the name 026_ti_usb_3410.rules

    Copy to into this file the following lines

    #TI USB 3410

    SUBSYSTEM=="usb_device" ACTION=="add" SYSFS{idVendor}=="0451",SYSFS{idProduct}=="3410" \

    SYSFS{bNumConfigurations}=="2" \

    SYSFS{bConfigurationValue}=="1" \

    RUN+="/bin/sh -c 'echo 2 > /sys%p/device/bConfigurationValue'"

     

    At the time you finish this process reboot your system and connect the 3410 EVM and you will be able to see the node in /dev/ttyUSB0 as your serial port.

     Regards

    Roberto.
