The FT2232H Mini Module is a USB to dual channel serial/MPSSE/FIFO interface converter module based on the FT2232H USB Hi-Speed IC. The FT2232H handles all the USB signalling and protocol handling. The module provides access to device I/O interfaces via 2 double row 0.1” pitch male connectors. The module is ideal for development purposes to quickly prove functionality of adding USB to a target design. Official reference can be found here
You can configure debugging tool using debug_tool option in “platformio.ini” (Project Configuration File):
[env:myenv]
platform = ...
board = ...
debug_tool = minimodule
If you would like to use this tool for firmware uploading, please change upload protocol:
[env:myenv]
platform = ...
board = ...
debug_tool = minimodule
upload_protocol = minimodule
More options:
macOS contains default FTDIUSBSerialDriver driver which conflicts with debug tools which are based on this chip. FTDI Chip company recommends removing this default driver from a system. Everything should work after system rebooting. See detailed instruction in official application note (Page 16, Section 4: Uninstalling FTDI Drivers on OS X) AN134: FTDI Drivers Installation guide for MAC OS X
Please install “udev” rules 99-platformio-udev.rules. If you already installed them before, please check that your rules are up-to-date or repeat steps.
