EEPROM WRITE UTILITY
The DLP-2232PB has the option to accept manufacturer-specific information that is written into
the on-board 93C56 EEPROM. Parameters that can be programmed include the VID and the
PID identifiers, the manufacturer's product string, and a serial number. Additionally, the basic
modes of operation for the FT2232C (USB-UART, USB-FIFO, etc) and desired drivers (VCP or
DLL) are also selected via the configuration settings in the EEPROM.
MPROG version 2.2 is the latest EEPROM serializer utility from FTDI for the FT2232C device.
MPROG is based on the new combinational VCP / D2XX DLL driver package. This driver
package acts as VCP Drivers for Windows 98 / ME / 2000 / XP and D2XX drivers for Windows
2000 / XP. In the near future, FTDI will be publishing a version including D2XX support for
Windows 98 / ME.
MPROG will update the contents of the EEPROM even if the VCP drivers are currently selected
in the EEPROM.
