Problems with the installation VCP driver

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TUSB3410, MSP430FG4618, SN74V293

Hi,

I tried installing the driver TUSBWINVCP (swrc094.zip file) but nothing happened. Moreover, given that there is a file-TUSBWINVCP_WDF Single_Driver_v3-2.exe this zip file. I did not find this file.My board follows the schematic Figure1 Application Report (MSP430 USB Connectivity Using TUSB3410 - slla276a). Also, I downloaded the zip file this Application Report. I need to communicate with the PC board. The microcontroller is the use MSP430FG4618 and the PC operating system is Windows XP. I need to resolve this issue as urgent as possible! I look for answers and I thank you.

 

Best Regards,

  • Jun Fernando,

    The ZIP file is not a software installer, it only places the software on your machine and you then need to run the actual installer that is placed on your PC.  The reason for the two step process is the ZIP file contains multiple versions of the driver for the various flavors of Windows (XP/7 and 32/64-bit).

    There is more infomation available in the TUSB3410 Implementation Video.

  • DHarmon,

     

    I managed to install the VCP driver, but when I connect the 
    USB adapter cable to the host PC appears a warning that the 
    device is malfunctioning and that Windows does not 
    acknowledged. I configured the file usbuart.inf  and a file
    . CFG with the same VID and PID, neither worked. I do not  
    nothing programmed in EEPROM. To insert a VID and PID in EEPROM
    I use the  EEPROM Programmer? My board follows the 
    schematic of Figure 1 Application Report (MSP 
    Connectivity Using TUSB3410 - slaa276a).

     

     Thanks

  • A few follow-up questions:

    1) Where is your FW stored - host PC, attached EEPROM, or within the MSP430 flash?

    2) What VID/PID combination is in your USB Descriptor?

     

  • Hi, DHarmon

     

    1) I'm using the firmware contained in the folder (MSP430F16X_SW_IAR) Application Report SLLS276A.zip (MSP430 USB Connectivity Using TUSB3410). I understand that this firmware is stored on the MSP430 flash. The problem is that my microcontroller is MSP430FG4618, and the registers are different compared to MSP430F16X. I'm trying to adapt the code for my microcontroller fácil.Gostaria but not to know the easiest way to establish and widespread communication between the TUSB3410 device and a host PC? There is another folder (MSP430FG461x_EEPROM_IAR) that makes the emulation of EEPROM. This code establishes the recognition when the TUSB3410 device connects to the host PC?. My goal is to send data from the FIFO memory (SN74V293) of the microcontroller to the host PC.

    2) USB vendor ID: 0x0451 (TI's VID)
       
    USB product ID: 0xbeef

     
    The. Inf file must have these same values to associate the USB device that is connected to the host PC?

     

    Thanks again DHarmon
