8.2 Methods of Programming the MTP Memory

8.2.1 Programming the MTP memory over USB

The MTP memory on all FT-X devices can be programmed over USB. This method is the same as for the

EEPROM on other FTDI devices such as the FT232R. No additional hardware, connections or programming

voltages are required. The device is simply connected to the host computer in the same way that it would

be for normal applications, and the FT_Prog utility is used to set the required options and program the

device.

The FT_Prog utility is provided free-of-charge from the FTDI website, and can be found at the link below.

The user guide is also available at this link.

Additionally, D2XX commands can be used to program the MTP memory from within user applications.

For more information on the commands available, please see the D2XX Programmers Guide below.



Configuration Memory Area (writable)



Configuration Memory Area (non-writable)

User Memory Area

The User Memory Areas are highlighted in Green on the memory map. They can be read and written via

USB on the FT231X. All locations within this range are freely programmable; no areas have special

functions and there is no checksum for the user area.

Note that the application should take into account the specification for the number of write cycles in

Section 5.4 if it will be writing to the MTP memory multiple times.
