USB Driver

Before connecting the RKX-EVK-001 to a computer, it is highly recommended to install the ROHM EVK GUI SW first by using the installer file

available for download on the ROHM Semiconductor website:

https://www.rohm.com/support/accelerometer-evk-support

If the ROHM EVK software installer is used, a separate USB driver installation for the Infineon CY8CKIT-059 Prototyping Kit is not required. Also,

the Windows 10 operating system should automatically use the correct USB driver. However, earlier Windows versions are not able to

automatically find the CDC ACM driver and the user will need to install the signed release inf file as described in (

2.1 USB Driver Installation

Procedure

2.1

USB Driver Installation Procedure

Following the installation of the ROHM EVK software, locate the folder

“cdc_acm_driver” on the computer in the following location:

..\Documents\ROHM_EVK_v3\ROHM-EVK-Firmware\Windows-dependencies\ROHM-EVK-USB-driver\cdc_acm_driver

and verify the presence of the following two files in the above-mentioned directory

•

A file with

”

.cat

”

extension

•

A file with

”

inf”

extension

Connect the Infineon CY8CKIT-059 Prototypic Kit to a computer using the provided micro-USB cable (
