Hello,

I would like to ask about the FX2LP firmware upload to linux system.

Only VID/PID information is put in eeprom and I tried to upload f/w using the cypress_load_firmware() api (in cypress_firmware.c) function in the kernel driver.

The function above uses the only .fw format. so If there is a tool that can convert .hex iic files into “.fw” format, please kind let me know how to convert f/w format.

BR,

Tony Kim
