MPSSE Example Projects |
|
This page contains examples specific to the Multi-Protocol Synchronous
Serial Engine (MPSSE) of the
FT2232D,
FT2232H,
FT4232H
and FT232H devices.
- LibMPSSE-I2C
(Recommended)
FTDI have produced a newly updated library to handle all the MPSSE commands
necessary to interface to a device using the I2C protocol. A
separate page has been created where the LibMPSSE library can be
downloaded, along with code examples and release notes. The user
guide is available as
AN_177.
-
LibMPSSE-SPI (Recommended)
FTDI have provided a new library to configure the MPSSE for
emulating SPI. A separate page has been created where the LibMPSSE
library can be downloaded, along with examples and release notes.
The user guide is available as
AN_178.
- FTCJTAG DLL
(This code is no longer supported by
FTDI)
FTDI have also produced a DLL to
handle all the MPSSE commands necessary to interface to a device using
the JTAG protocol. As with our FTCI2C DLL, a separate page has been created where the FTCJTAG DLL can be downloaded, along with code examples.
The MPSSE can be configured
directly
using
D2XX commands. The following examples on
this page illustrate how to achieve this for several popular protocols:

Host Bus Emulation Mode |
|
Overview
This is
an example project that demonstrates using the
FT2232D's Multi-Protocol
Synchronous Serial Engine (MPSSE) controller to perform MCU host bus
control of an AT-Bus. The executable application and the full
project code (in Delphi) are provided.
Requirements
This
project is designed to run on Windows 2000 or Windows XP and requires
FTDI's D2XX
drivers to be installed.

USB to I2C |
|
This is project is a free download containing source and executable to support AN_255.
The code will demonstrate connecting a FT232H in MPSSE mode to emulate an I2C master interface that interacts with the FT201X USB to I2C bridge.

USB to I2C
in C# |
|
This is project is a free
download containing source and executable to support
AN_411 FTx232H MPSSE I2C Master Example in C Sharp.
The code will demonstrate
using the MPSSE feature of the FT232H,
FT2232H and
FT4232H devices to
create a USB to I2C master device with a C# Visual Studio project. It
uses a proximity sensor and an RGB colour sensor as I2C peripherals to
create a system which can detect the presence of an object in close
proximity and can then determine its colour.

Our
thanks go to Bob Freeth for providing this VB6 example of using the
FT2232D
MPSSE for SPI communication with a MAX187 ADC.
Source
code and executable are available for free
download. This code is provided "as-is"
for illustration purposes only and as such neither FTDI or Bob Freeth
provide technical support for this VB6 code. |
