I got the USBUART example working, but all that does is show up as a COM port and echo characters back to the computer.  Is there a bridge example, so it shows up as a COM port, but passes the characters through to a hardware UART component, out of a hardware pin, and vice versa?

I've combined the USBFS_UART example with the UART_Full_Duplex example, modifying them so they send to each other instead of sending back to the source, and it seems to work.  I'm not sure how to handle changes in baud rate, etc. though.  I don't really understand UART or which end controls those parameters.

1. Yes, passing from the CDC COM port to the hardware pins of of an external IC and vice versa, like a FT232 or similar

2. CY8C3446LTI-073

3. Yes, but the Full_Duplex one seemed more appropriate
