3. Device Customization
Device customization for the CP2102N is done through Xpress Configurator, which is available in Simplicity Studio:
http://www.silabs.com/simplicity
The Simplicity Studio software package contains all the tools, drivers, configuration software, and documentation needed to use the
CP2102N USB-to-UART Bridge Evaluation Board.
After downloading the latest version of Simplicity Studio and installing the software:
1. Install the CP210x Virtual COM Port Driver during the software setup steps, if it's not already installed. This action can always be
accessed through the [Setup Tasks] tile in the [Resources] section.
2. Click the [Refresh detected hardware] button.
3. Select [CP2102N] under [Detected Hardware]. On the board, a successful USB connection is established when the SUSPENDB
LED (D7) turns on.
4. Click the [Xpress Configurator] tile to open Xpress Configurator and customize the device.
Documentation for each of the customization options is provided within Xpress Configurator. More information on each of these options
can be found in AN721: CP210x Device Customization Guide, which is available on the Silicon Labs website (
www.silabs.com/inter-
face-appnotes) or within Simplicity Studio using the [Application Notes] tile.
