Have you tried Zadig (with libusb-win32)

It's available from https://zadig.akeo.ie/

I've used it several times in the past - and it seems safe and reliable.. Usual provisos apply though.

Rather than using an if .... statement to calculate the parity bit (and brackets might change the result here if (.x == 1) || (.x == 3) etc (you have if x==1 && x= 3 && x=5... which can't ever be true) Depending on whether you need odd or even parity: Use .parity = .x & 1 Returns...

I would probably count the bits in both MSB and LSB. If a byte (LSB or MSB) is 0 - it won't affect the parity value - but if there is an error in transmission then it might not be 0 - and will affect the final result (if you use (MSB << 8) + LSB) Alternatively - if LSB must be 0 - ignore it - and us...

No I didn't use SPI here...

Just bit-bang the pins....

... I posted a python script that does this at viewtopic.php?t=3279&hilit=Replace+component

It's not as smart - so you might need to tweak parameters afterwards - but it does work...

Looks though it's working reasonably....

I've done a version - but haven't been able to test yet.... Just toggles CLK and reads the 12 bits of data...
I think - the loop count might need changing - I have 15 (2 undefined, 1 null and 12 data)

That looks very like the one i have... Like some PIC MCUs - most functions can be directed to (nearly) any pin. There are a few reserved(connected) to things like the wi-fi module - however generally if it is broken out to a pin you can use it. The only 'fixed' pins are SPI if you need the highest s...

The esp32 does offer a remarkable amount of 'bang' for the buck.... The programming paradigm ( :-) ) - is slightly different to most MCUs - for the most part because of the (co-operative) multi-tasking system used. It's worth playing along though - because the performance for such a low-price device...

Hi Bob, I did a quick demo program - and the UARTs seem to work okay. I use two UARTs one (connected to UART1 - and thus to USB) and one to UART2 (I connected an FTDI convertor). Note that I also connected the Tx pin - and output a message here - as a sanity check. It looks for data at UART2 (I used...

I have used a second UART successfully - for example viewtopic.php?t=3542&hilit=LiDAR - however i did this in C...

Can you upload a code snippet and a bit more detail what's going wrong...
