ARCHIVED
This has been superseded by ftdi-embedded-hal.
ftd2xx-embedded-hal
Inspired by ftdi-embedded-hal this is an embedded-hal implementation for the for the FTDI chips using the libftd2xx drivers.
This enables development of embedded device drivers without the use of a microcontroller. The FTDI D2xx devices interface with your PC via USB, and provide a multi-protocol synchronous serial engine to interface with most UART, SPI, and I2C embedded devices.
Note: This is strictly a development tool. The crate contains runtime borrow checks and explicit panics to adapt the FTDI device into the embedded-hal traits.
Quickstart
- Enable the "static" feature flag to use static linking.
- Linux users only: Add udev rules.
[dependencies.ftd2xx-embedded-hal]
version = "~0.9.1"
features = ["static"]
Examples
SPI
use embedded_hal::prelude::*;
use ftd2xx_embedded_hal::Ft232hHal;
let ftdi = Ft232hHal::new()?.init_default()?;
let mut spi = ftdi.spi()?;
I2C
use embedded_hal::prelude::*;
use ftd2xx_embedded_hal::Ft232hHal;
let ftdi = Ft232hHal::new()?.init_default()?;
let mut i2c = ftdi.i2c()?;
GPIO
use embedded_hal::prelude::*;
use ftd2xx_embedded_hal::Ft232hHal;
let ftdi = Ft232hHal::new()?.init_default()?;
let mut gpio = ftdi.ad6();
Limitations
- Limited trait support: SPI, I2C, Delay, and OutputPin traits are implemented.
- Limited device support: FT232H, FT2232H, FT4232H.
