Hi,

Please refer to  AN68914 - EZ-USB® FX3 I2C Boot Option for details about the firmware image supported. For writing to EEPROM you can use Control Center installed along with CyUSBSuite released for FX3.

Once your device is enumerated as Cypress EZ-USB FX3 Boot Programmer, you can select the Program->FX3->I2C EEPROM and select the image (bin file) to be downloaded to EEPROM.

Regarding SPI image..the current version of FX3 device is not supporting SPI boot. FX3 with SPI boot will be released soon. We will update you as soon as it is released.

Thanks,

Shruti

Hi,

The version of CyUSBsuite I am using is Beta1. This does not give me the option of prgramming an I2C EEPROM. Is there a later version of CyUSBSuite that I should be using.

Thanks,

Sodafarl
