This is not a homework problem, though it is a work problem. Where months ago, I would have just written up a specification and the boss would have contracted it out, money's tight. So I'm trying to do this myself.
I'm a weak C coder, and I'm lucky if gcc spits out something that will run without segfaulting, or sometimes anything at all. Still, I manage. Libftdi is built, I've carefuly perused both its example executables/code, and the documentation. But I'm still lost.
Does anyone know of a software project that makes use of its MPSEE mode, that's hooked into an SPI device? Is anyone here slick enough to provide an example? I could really use the help. I don't need this handed to me on a silver platter, but I'm having trouble even getting started. If I could even figure out how to initialize it and send a byte to the chip on the other side of the FTDI ic, I think I might manage to muddle my way through it.
Any help appreciated.
