enumerates properly. Using Phil_C’s utilities and instructions, I loaded
the USB driver for the FX2 in its Cypress Default Device mode – I2C
EEPROM not yet programmed – and loaded the FX2 firmware. I programmed the
I2C EEPROM to enumerate as an HPSDR Host Assisted Load Device. I then
retargeted the Driver to the new Device, reloaded the FX2 firmware and loaded
the FPGA through the FX2, all per Phil’s instructions. All LEDs blinked
appropriately. Cool!<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

put down the Cyclone 2 FPGA with its floppy pins on my own without a
microscope. Lyle Johnson helped out by doing that one device for me. The rest I
did on my own with a magnifying lamp. I am pursuing the hot-plate/heat-gun
approach for a future trial at this device. My only problem was with the pins
moving when I touched them with the iron, and not being able to see that
movement. The no-touch hot-plate/heat-gun approach ought to cure that. The
other small-pitch ICs had stiff enough pins not to be a problem.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

tried and failed to get the Ozy to enumerate through a Belkin F5U237 Rev 3 USB
2.0 Hub. After accusing the Ozy board for a full day, I plugged the USB cable
into a port directly on the PC. Voila! It enumerated with no problem. So, it
still seems to be the case after all these years that even new USB Hubs are not
fully transparent.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
