Cypress adds driver development wizards to EZ-USB toolkit
Jul 8, 2003 — by LinuxDevices Staff — from the LinuxDevices Archive — viewsJungo Software Technologies announced that Cypress Semiconductor has added an evaluation version of Jungo's WinDriver device driver development tool to Cypress's EZ-USB peripheral controller development kits. The Cypress EZ-USB controllers support full- and hi-speed USB 2.0, and integrate an 8051 processor, serial interface engine, USB transceiver, on-chip RAM and FIFO, and a general programmable… interface.
Jungo said its WinDriver tool provides wizard-based functions that simplify creating device drivers for Cypress's EZ-USB controllers for operation on Linux, Windows, and Windows CE .NET target software platforms. The tool is described as providing graphical development environments, automatic USB driver code generation capabilities, driver debugging utilities, and driver samples, and is said to generate driver code that is compatible across the supported operating systems.
The Jungo toolkit featured in Cypress development kits includes APIs that have been specifically customized for Cypress's EZ-USB family, Jungo said.
Full-featured 30-day evaluation versions of WinDriver will be bundled in the Cypress EZ-USB development kits starting July, and an evaluation version of WinDriver is available for download Jungo's web site, Jungo said.
