Hi,
Thank you for contacting us. Currently, we don't have drivers for Linux. Are you planning to use FDC1004 with a Microcontroller? If yes, the registers can be accessed from a standard I2C protocol.

Hi Sharath,
Thanks for your reply.
We need to test the capacitance sensor and probe under our Unix system using FDC1004EVM board and TIDA-00317 sensor probe.
We need to change the default setting since we should measure in differential mode.
Any suggestions how we should do it?
Thanks,
Ofer
Hi Ofer,
Please refer to the sample Energia code provided in the link https://www.ti.com/product/FDC1004#design-development. This should provide guidance in changing the default settings on the Linux machine.

Sharath.
Hi Sharath,
1. The links you sent to me doesn't include the info I asked and need
The info I need is specific:.
We need the USB protocol or Linux library and documentation of FDC1004EVM
We need to change the setup of the FDC1004EVM from the default via Linux
2. In addition t to the issue that you didn't sent to me the requested info I think you have an issue with the website since I downloaded few file from the link you sent to to me and the files downloaded partially for example:
The downloaded file useless since it was 4k and not 4172 KB.
2.2
The downloaded file useless since it was 13k and not
2.3
Trying to check the schematic:

Watch related videos about Sensing NOW.
I got the error:

Hi,
The communication between MSP430 and the computer using the USB is developed by the MSP430 team. Please refer to the http://www.ti.com/lit/an/slaa457b/slaa457b.pdf?ts=1590292144965 document regarding the protocol used for the same.

Hi Sharath.,
The link given here doesn't help because it just talks about the capabilities of that MCU for USB communication and not what is implemented on this specific EVM1004FDC.
We need the source code for the application running on that MCU.
I think the link of CODE EXAMPLES & DEMOS you sent before was for that code but I couldn't open it
So either please send to me the zip file or even better please contact in the team that write that software.
Thanks,
Ofer
Hi Ofer,
I was able to open the zip file. Please send me a friend request for me to share the file with you
Regards
Sharath.
