I'm going through the SuperSpeed Device Design by Example book. I have eclipse working on MacOS Mojave 10.14.2, and have successfully imported the book projects. I'm trying out the book's first example project in Chapter 3 on page 49. According to the book, my next step is to load the .img file using USB Control Center. When I click the USB Control Center button in eclipse, I get this:
So without having USB Control Center for MacOS, how can I load the .img file?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi,
To program FX3 (either to RAM/EEPROM/Flash) please use 'download_fx3' which is in the following path:
"FX3_SDK_1.3.4_MacOS.tar\FX3_SDK_1.3.4_MacOS\cyusb_mac_1.0.tar\cyusb_mac_1.0\examples"
You can download the SDK for Mac in the following link:

Thanks for your reply Hemanth.
When I run make in the examples directory, it cannot find an include file:
How can I get this include file and where should it be placed?

Hi,
Please install libusb on your machine and then build the program.
The header file comes when you install libusb.

Hi,
Yes cypress library should also be built.
Can you please refer to Section 2: BUILDING AND INSTALLING THE Library of the document "cyusb_mac_user_guide.pdf" which is present in the following path:
"FX3_SDK_1.3.4_MacOS.tar\FX3_SDK_1.3.4_MacOS\cyusb_mac_1.0.tar\cyusb_mac_1.0\docs"

Thanks Hemanth. The download_fx3 utility is now working to download firmware image files to the FX3 under MacOS.
