Hello,

The customer wants to distribute the USB-UART (CY7C65213) driver installer (CypressDriverInstaller_1.exe) to the end user.

Is it possible to sell the customer's products including Cypress's driver software on a recording medium such as CD-R?

Does Cypress allow redistribution of driver software?

Best Regards,

Naoaki Morimoto

Yes. (Same as GX3 you posted last year Is it possible to redistribute GX3 Windows Drivers? )

You can redistribute, but I recommend you to send its link to customer rather than downloading the driver and sending via CD-R.

Because these are periodically updated and if the customer download from Cypress website, the customer will be able to always get the latest revision driver.

Best regards,

Hirotaka Takayama

Takayama-san,

Thank you for your answer.

I will tell the customer to send the download link to the end user as well.
