The FT232R is available in Pb-free (RoHS compliant) compact 28-Lead SSOP and QFN-32 packages. A unique number (the FTDIChip-ID™) is burnt into the device during manufacture and is readable over USB, thus forming the basis of a security dongle which can be used to protect customer application software from being copied. The internally generated clock (6MHz, 12MHz, 24MHz, and 48MHz) can be brought out of the device and used to drive a microcontroller or external logic. The FT232R adds two new functions compared with its predecessors, effectively making it a “3-in-1” chip for some application areas. USB to serial designs using the FT232R have been further simplified by fully integrating the external EEPROM, clock circuit and USB resistors onto the device. In addition, asynchronous and synchronous bit bang interface modes are available. The FT232R is a USB to serial UART interface with optional clock generator output, and the new FTDIChip-ID™ security dongle feature. grr.The FT232R is added to FTDI’s range of USB UART interface Integrated Circuit Devices. Right now I'm going back to a previous restore point so I can start clean again. I'm sure I'm missing something stupid, so if someone can give me a pointer to whatever I need to do to make this work so I can get back up and running I'd appreciate it.

When I look at device manager it has "Unknown Device" and "D-CAN" neither of which have drivers installed. I tried loading the drivers from the CD that came with the cable but that didn't work either. Now when I plug my cable into the USB port it does not find any drivers for it, whereas on my old (Vista) laptop it just worked.

Got it to the point where I was almost back to where I was. Well apparently the HDD had bad sectors on the Windows partition so I can't get it to work now. I hadn't got my laptop completely set up yet because I was stuck on communication w/ car, but we figured it out.īut I knew laptop was dying so I bought a new hard drive for it and cloned the old one. weekend before last was over at a local guy's house and ended up messing around with coding.
