New DLP Design Product Announcements:
DLP-HS-FPGA High-Speed FPGA Module
February 2010: DLP Design, Inc. is pleased to announce the new DLP-HS-FPGA
high-speed FPGA module based on silicon from Xilinx and FTDI.
The DLP-HS-FPGA module is a low-cost, compact prototyping tool that can be used for rapid proof of concept
or within educational environments. The module is based on the Xilinx Spartan™ 3A and Future Technology
Devices International’s FT2232H Dual-Channel High-Speed USB IC. The DLP-HS-FPGA provides both the beginner
as well as the experienced engineer with a rapid path to developing FPGA-based designs. When combined with
the free ISE™ WebPACK™ tools from Xilinx, this module is more than sufficient for creating anything from basic
logical functions to a highly complex system controller.

DLP-RFID-UHF1 RFID Reader/Writer
January 2010: DLP Design, Inc. is pleased to announce the new DLP-RFID-UHF1B
portable RFID reader/writer based on the new AS3991 integrated analog front-end and data-framing system from
Austria Microsystems.
This new design features a USB interface and implements a fully ISO 18000-6a/6b/6c-compliant EPC Class 1-
Gen2 reader with all operational power taken from the host USB interface port. The small
(3.3 x 2.3 x 0.8 inch) footprint with external antenna is perfect for desktop applications where cost,
size and ease of use are primary considerations. The module can also be embedded within custom applications
and communicate via a 5-pin header.

New Product: USB "A" to 5-Pin Mini-B
Retractable Cable
At only 4.5 inches (115mm)
when collapsed and 46 inches (1.1m) when fully extended, this cable
is perfect for use with laptops, in tight spaces or any application
that requires a USB 1.1/2.0 compliant USB cable. The DLP-M5CBL is
compatible with the DLP-RFID1, DLP-232PC, DLP-TILT, DLP-TXRX and
FTDI UB232R.

Design Test Application
This developer's tool communicates with all
FTDI devices using either the Virtual Com Port or DLL version of
FTDI's drivers. Simply connect an FTDI device to the USB port,
load the drivers you want to use (VCP or DLL), and immediately start
sending bytes of data to the target. Any data returned from
your target electronics is presented on the screen in a List Box
and optionally logged to a data file. This software runs under
Windows 98/ME/2000/XP. -- Version
2.0r Released (11-26-07).

CDM Uninstaller - Program for selectively removing FTDI devices with a specific
VID and PID combinations.
MPROG - EEPROM Mode Config Program v3.5
MPROG User's Guide
USBView Program (See VID and PID of all connected USB devices even without drivers loaded)
Current version of
drivers:
CDM (Combined Driver Model version 2.6.0) Windows Drivers
(updated 11-03-09) WHQL Certified USB drivers are required for 64-bit systems :
FTDI default VID/PID values (0403/6001single channel, 6010 for dual) listed
in the .inf files must be programmed into EEPROM using MPROG)
CDM (Combined Driver Model version 2.6.0) Windows Drivers (updated 11-03-09)
Modified .inf files for use with specific DLP Design products: DLP-FLASH, TH1, TILT, D, RFID1, UT1, UTH8
*** >>> See NOTE1 <<< ***
NOTE1: In order to use the listed DLP Design products on a 64-bit machine, the VID/PID
values in the EEPROM area must first be changed to the FTDI default of 0403/6001 (0403/6010 for dual channel products) so
the WHQL Certified drivers will load. Use the MPROG utility (above) on a non-64bit (Ex: XP) machine to update the values
in the EEPROM.
NOTE2: If an extra COM port is not available after installing the latest CDM driver, connect the USB device and open Control Panel > System > Device Manager. Right click on
USB Serial Converter under USB Controllers and select Properties, then the Advanced tab. Check the box marked "Load VCP" then click OK.
Unplug and re-plug the USB device and the COM port will be added. This method is also used to convert from the VCP drivers to the D2XX (DLL) drivers.
