regarding the software and running one of the demo applications.
3.2. CP210x USB to UART VCP Driver Installation
The C8051F338 Target Board includes a Silicon Laboratories CP2102 USB-to-UART Bridge Controller. Device
drivers for the CP2102 need to be installed before PC software such as HyperTerminal can communicate with the
target board over the USB connection. If the "Install CP210x Drivers" option was selected during installation, this
will launch a driver “unpacker” utility.
1. Follow the steps to copy the driver files to the desired location. The default directory is C:\SiLabs\MCU\CP210x.
2. The final window will give an option to install the driver on the target system. Select the “Launch the CP210x VCP Driver
3. If selected, the driver installer will now launch, providing an option to specify the driver installation location. After pressing
4. If the “Launch the CP210x VCP Driver Installer” option was not selected in step 3, the installer can be found in the location
5. To complete the installation process, connect the included USB cable between the host computer and the USB connector
6. If needed, the driver files can be uninstalled by selecting “Silicon Laboratories CP210x USB to UART Bridge (Driver
