This article mainly introduces what is the driver of the Windows platform connected to LilyPad, which has a certain reference value, and interested friends can refer to it. I hope you can learn a lot after reading this article.

Driver of Windows platform connected to LilyPad

The difference between the LilyPad and other Arduino panels is that it is designed for electronic fabrics and wearables. Then, its size must be compact. Therefore, it does not have the USB communication chip that most other boards have. Uploading the program for LilyPad needs to be done through a FTDI-compatible device, the official LilyPad Programmer provided by LilyPad, as shown in figure 2.34.

Driver of Windows platform

If you are using a Windows7 or above system and are connected to the Internet, the driver will be installed automatically when you connect the LilyPad programmer to your computer through USB. If your system is not automatically installed for you or your computer is not connected to the Internet, then you need to install the driver manually. FTDI officially provides a very convenient driver package, users only need to download and directly execute the installation.

FTDI's official website is http://www.ftdichip.com. LilyPad uses FT232RL chips, so you need to download the driver of the D2XX series, whose link is http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/D2XX.htm, and the download link for the corresponding version.

The driver package downloaded by Window operating system is called CDM v2.12.00 WHQL Certified.exe. The user only needs to execute and install it directly, and since it has no customizable items, the installation process will not be repeated. When the correct driver is installed for the chip, you can see a port called USB Serial Port in the "port" of the device manager.

At this point, we can proceed to the next step of the connection.
