USB low-full-high speed peripherals Forum Discussions

I am Using CY7C65211-24LTXIT as USB to I2C bridge.I need to communicate with my I2C peripherals.

How do i proceed?

I want to create a custom application that allows me to configure the CY7C65215A to read and write the different protocols. From this post, it sounds like I can't write my application, but instead, I'm required to use the USB-Configure tool to create a ".cyusb" for each configuration. I'm looking for some clarification on a few things.

1. Can the USB-Serial SDK be used to configure which protocol the device uses, or can it only be done through flashing the internal eeprom?
2. When using the USB-Configuration application, is the save ".cyusb" file is it encrypted to is it raw data?
3. Can the ".cyusb" file created from the USB-Configuration, be written to the device using the CyProgUserFlash API function
4. Are the CySet***Config API functions only used to set protocol-specific parameters

I'm trying to use the CyUSBSerialTestUtility from the USB-Serial SDK to interface with a CY7C65215A. I'm using Ubuntu 22.04 and libusb-1.0.25.

I followed the README instructions, built/compiled the library files , and then built/compiled the test utility.

With the CY7C65215A connected, I can use the "screen" application to read and write serial data and see the device using "lsusb."

When running the CyUSBSerialTestUtility as root, I don't see any devices when selecting "print list of devices"

When I disconnect the CY7C65215A, the CyUSBSerialTestUtility shows that somthing was disconnected

And when I reconnected the CY7C65215A, the CyUSBSerialTestUtility showed that somthing connected.

I'm sure the hardware is OK, I'm able to use the USB configuration application on a windows machine to interface a program the device, but I'm looking to write my own Linux application.
