USB2GPIO-LOADER-SW: Connecting to the BQ78PL116 via USB-TO-GPIO (2006) requires no longer available software

Part Number: USB2GPIO-LOADER-SW
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: BQWIZARD, BQ78PL116

Tool/software:

Hi,

I am trying to connect to an ancient (early 2000's) piece of hardware that my company produces that contains the BQ78PL116 bms chip.  I have acquired a working USB-TO-GPIO adapter and following the bqwizard software to try and connect to this chip.  According to the bqwizard documentation I need to change the firmware on the USB-TO-GPIO adapter using the USB2GPIO-LOADER-SW.  However, this software is no longer available.  I have checked other E2E threads with similar content and it appears that TI no longer has this software or potentially is not willing to distribute it any longer. Before I completely throw in the towel I just wanted to confirm that this software is no longer supported/available.

Thanks,

Andrew
