CY7C65213 is brick after changing the VID & PID information

[newbie]

The card was not able to be read after changed the VID and PID settings using the "USB Serial Configuration Utility"  as below;

from =  \VID_04B4&PID_0003&MI_00

to =  \VID_04B2&PID_0002&MI_00

Please advise how to revert back these and bring back the card alive.

Any methods to master reset?

Thanks!

Hi,

>> Once you edit the VID/PID of USB Serial device, you will also have to modify the inf file of the driver such that it includes the new VID/PID. Please refer to the following KBA which explains binding drivers to a USB Serial device with custom VID/PID for Windows 7: https://community.cypress.com/t5/Knowledge-Base-Articles/Binding-Drivers-to-a-USB-Serial-Bridge-Cont... 

>> For Windows 10, however, it won't be simple to modify the cypress .inf file to add the custom VID/PID since doing so invalidates the Windows device signing. In this case you can opt for Driver Resell. Please refer to the following KBA to understand about Driver Resell: https://community.cypress.com/t5/Knowledge-Base-Articles/Driver-resell-and-Driver-signing-FAQs-KBA23... 

>> An alternative solution is in the device manager you select the device and can forcefully bind it cyusb3 driver present in: <install directory>\Program Files (x86)\Cypress\USB-Serial SDK\Cypress USB-Serial Driver\DriverBinary\Vendor_Driver\bin after which you should be able to change back to the default VID/PID in the Configuration Utility.

Please let me know if any of the above method helps in resolving the issue.
