Introduction
This document and the accompanying software demonstrate how simple user-mode, using the libusb, Linux applications can communicate directly to EZ-USB based USB devices, without any need to write a kernel device driver. The author assumes the reader has a working knowledge of Linux and gone through FX2LP documentation as well as windows based FX2LP tools/utilities.
Cypress also provides a CyUSB Suite for Linux platforms, which includes a Cypress API wrapper based on LibUSB. Host application examples are also provided. The FX3 SDK for Linux, v1.2.1 can be downloaded from this link http://www.cypress.com/?rID=57990
