Chapter 2. Installation and Operation

2.1

MINIMUM SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

The MCP2221 I

2

C Demonstration Board is designed to be used in a Microsoft

®

Windows

®

XP (SP3 or later) environment, based on the Microsoft.NET Framework 4

(client profile). Users can utilize the Microsoft.NET Framework 4 web installer package
to download and install the Microsoft.NET Framework 4 components.
For USB connectivity, the minimal physical requirement for the PC is a standard
USB 2.0 port. The board connects to the PC via the mini-USB connector (J4). In case
the board connects to the PC through a USB hub, use a self-powered hub.

2.2

BOARD SETUP

Before the MCP2221 I

2

C Demonstration Board can be used, a few steps must be

performed to install the PC software and configure the board’s hardware.

2.2.1

Software Installation

Follow these steps to install the required software:
1. Download the support material (PC application) that can be found on the board’s

page at

www.microchip.com

.

2. Unzip the archive and install the

.exe

file. The setup process should also

perform the USB driver installation, if needed. If there are driver-related issues,
refer to

Section 5.2 “USB Driver Installation Issues”

.

2.2.2

Hardware Setup

Follow these steps to set up the hardware:
1. Check if the board is properly powered from USB by setting jumper J19 to either

5V or 3.3V; by default, it is set to 5V.

2. Connect the MCP2221 I

2

C Demonstration Board to a PC through the mini-USB

port (J4).
