Future Technology Devices International Limited, commonly known by its acronym FTDI, is a Scottish privately held semiconductor device company, specialising in Universal Serial Bus (USB) technology.^[1]

It develops, manufactures, and supports devices and their related cables and software drivers for converting RS-232 or TTLserial transmissions to and from USB signals, in order to provide support for legacy devices with modern computers.^[2]

The company also provides application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) design services, and consultancy services for product design, specifically in the realm of electronic devices.

Download FTDI CDM Driver 2.12.24 (Other Drivers & Tools) FTDI’s CDM drivers provide both D2XX and VCP functionality through a single driver package. On mobile editions of Windows, such as Windows 10 Mobile, only drivers that are part of the operating system are loaded. Unlike desktop editions, it is not possible to load a driver through an external driver package. With the new in-box INF, Usbser.sys is automatically loaded if a USB-to-serial device is detected on the mobile device.

I've been suffering to introduce my USB to Serial (RS232) FTDI converter on Raspbian 10 on my Raspberry pi 3 Model B. In Windows 10 it works without installing an additional driver. FTDI drivers may be used only in conjunction with products based on FTDI parts. FTDI drivers may be distributed in any form as long as license information is not modified. If a custom vendor ID and/or product ID or description string are used, it is the responsibility of the product manufacturer to maintain any changes and subsequent WHCK re.

History[edit]

Ftdi Usb Serial Driver Windows 10

FTDI was founded on 13 March 1992^[3] by its current CEO, Fred Dart. The company is an indirect descendant of Computer Design Concepts Ltd, a former semiconductor technology startup also founded by Dart.

FTDI's initial products were chipsets for personal computer motherboards, the primary customer of which was IBM, which used them in its AMBRA and PS/1 personal computers. It later expanded its product line to include interface translators, such as the MM232R and the USB-COM232-PLUS1, along with other devices for converting between USB and other communication protocols.

The headquarters of FTDI is in Glasgow, Scotland. It has offices in Singapore, Taipei (Taiwan), and Portland, Oregon, and a subsidiary in China.^[3] The company's manufacturing is handled by subcontractors in the Asia-Pacific region.

Driver controversy[edit]

On 29 September 2014, FTDI released an updated version of their USB-to-Serial driver for Windows on their website.^[4] Users who manually downloaded the new drivers reported problems.^[5] After Windows drivers became available on 14 October (Patch Tuesday) via Windows Update, it was reported by users of hardware enthusiast forums and websites that the drivers could soft-brickcounterfeit and software-compatible clones of the chips by changing their USB 'Product ID' to '0000'. The change prevents the chip from being recognised by drivers of any OS, effectively making them inoperable unless the product ID is changed back.^[6] The behaviour was supported by a notice in the drivers' end user license agreement, which warned that use of the drivers with non-genuine FTDI products would 'irretrievably damage' them.^[6] Critics felt that FTDI's actions were unethical, considering that users may be unaware that their chips were counterfeit, or that Windows had automatically installed a driver meant to disable them.^[7][6][5][8] On 22 October 2014, an emergency patch was made to the FTDI drivers in the Linux kernel to recognise devices with the '0000' ID.^[9]

On 24 October 2014, in response to the criticism, FTDI withdrew the driver and admitted that the measure was intended to protect its intellectual property and encourage users to purchase genuine FTDI products. The company also stated that it was working to create an updated driver which would notify users of non-genuine FTDI products in a 'non-invasive' manner.^[10][7]

In February 2016, it was reported that FTDI had published another driver on Windows Update with DRM components intended to block non-genuine products. This time, the driver will communicate with affected devices, but all transmitted and received data is replaced with the looped ASCII string 'NON GENUINE DEVICE FOUND!', which could cause irregular interactions with devices.^[11][12]

Distribution[edit]

FTDI sells its products through major distributors around the world.^[13]

About Device Driver:

If you install this package, your device will be properly recognized by compatible systems, and might even benefit from new features or various bug fixes.
Please note that, even though other operating systems might also be compatible, we do not recommend you apply any software on platforms other than the specified ones. Doing so might cause the installation to crash, which could even render the device unusable.
When it comes to installing the package, the steps should not be much of a hassle because each manufacturer tries to make them as easy as possible; usually, you must make check for compatibility, get the package, run the available setup, and follow the instructions displayed on-screen.
However, due to the large number of devices out there and the various ways for applying these packages, it would be best if you refer to the installation manual first, to be sure of a successful update.
That being said, click the download button, and apply the present software on your product. Also constantly check with our website to stay up to speed with latest releases.

It is highly recommended to always use the most recent driver version available.
Try to set a system restore point before installing a device driver. This will help if you installed an incorrect or mismatched driver. Problems can arise when your hardware device is too old or not supported any longer.
