FTDI FT232H Breakout Board with Power Out

FT232H Breakout Board with Power Out

This board provides an FTDI FT232H parallel port, UART/I2C/SPI interface,+5V power, and +3.3V power.

You can put this on a breadboard.

and

You can use it with PulseView (Qt based logic analyzer).

Pulseview with this board can capture digital level from D0 - D7 port. But Show Cursors function shows time difference is wrong value. To correct this function, You need to rebuild PulseView Tools on Linux.

Build PulseView For Linux

$ git clone git://sigrok.org/sigrok-util

Patch divider value in ftdi-la driver.

$ git clone https://github.com/hnz1102/ft232hbrkout.git
$ cp ft232hbrkout/doc/patch.ftdi-la-api.linux sigrok-util/cross-compile/linux
$ cd sigrok-util/cross-compile/linux
$ patch < patch.ftdi-la-api.linux

Build

$ ./sigrok-cross-linux
$ cd sigrok-util/cross-compile/linux/build/libsigrok
$ ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure
$ sudo make install

Build PulseView For Windows

To build for Windows, you have to rebuild code on Linux.

$ git clone git://sigrok.org/sigrok-util
$ git clone https://github.com/mxe/mxe.git mxe-git
$ git clone https://github.com/hnz1102/ft232hbrkout.git
$ cp ft232hbrkout/doc/patch.ftdi-la-api.mingw sigrok-util/cross-compile/mingw
$ cp ft232hbrkout/doc/patch.sigrok-cross-mingw.* igrok-util/cross-compile/mingw

$ cd mxe-git

$ patch -p1 < ../sigrok-util/cross-compile/mingw/libusb1_upgrade.patch 

$ sudo  ln -s /usr/bin/python3 /usr/bin/python

$ sudo  apt install p7zip-full autopoint intltool libtool lzip python3-mako ruby libtool-bin bison flex gperf libssl-dev nsis ruby-asciidoctor-pdf 

$ make MXE_TARGETS=i686-w64-mingw32.static.posix MXE_PLUGIN_DIRS=plugins/examples/qt5-freeze gcc glib libzip libusb1 libftdi1 hidapi glibmm qtbase qtimageformats qtsvg qttranslations boost check gendef libieee1284 qtbase_CONFIGURE_OPTS='-no-sql-mysql'

$ cd sigrok-util/cross-compile/mingw
$ patch < patch.sigrok-cross-mingw.1

First build with normal.

$ ./sigrok-cross-mingw

Patch divider value in ftdi-la driver.

$ patch < patch.ftdi-la-api.mingw

Second build with patch.

$ patch < patch.sigrok-cross-mingw.2
$ ./sigrok-cross-mingw

After the build is successful, you can use the Pulseview Installer for Windows with the driver fixed.
