Cypress Semiconductor Corporation CyUSB Serial Library

Pre-requisites

• libusb 1.0.9 (or higher) is required for compilation and functioning of the

APIs in the library.

• GNU Make, the GCC toolchain, and CMake are used for the build process.

Building the library and the test utility

• Make a build directory and cd to it. Example: mkdir build && cd build

• Run cmake on the source directory and then make. Example:

cmake ../ && make

• Run sudo make install to install the header file, libraries, and test

utility into PREFIX (/usr/local/ by default).

• If you're on Linux, you might need to run ldconfig now.

• You can now launch the application and communication with the Cypress

USB-Serial DVK in vendor mode.

Note

Refer to the CyUSBSerial API documentation for descriptions of all the vendor mode APIs. The header file of the library is in ./include/CyUSBSerial.h.
