CP2130 EVALUATION KIT USER’S GUIDE
1. Introduction
The CP2130 Evaluation Kit consists of a CP2130 Evaluation Board and software package to demonstrate the use
of the CP2130 USB-to-SPI bridge to communicate with several SPI slave devices, including an on-board SPI ADC
and SPI EEPROM. Several PC applications are included to demonstrate the CP2130 features and evaluate SPI
performance.
2. Kit Contents
The CP2130 Evaluation Kit contains the following items:
CP2130 Evaluation Board
Mini-USB Cable
CP21xx Installation DVD
Quick Start Guide
3. Relevant Documentation
Application notes can be found on the Interface Application Notes page for all fixed-function devices:
www.silabs.com/interface-appnotes.
AN721: CP21xx Device Customization Guide—Customize the VID, PID, serial number, and other
parameters stored in the CP2130 one-time programmable ROM.
AN792: CP2130 Interface Specification—Describes the USB control and bulk transfers for CP2130
devices as well as GPIO configuration.
4. Software Setup
The Software Development Kit (SDK) for the CP2130 Evaluation Kit is included on the kit DVD. The latest version
of this installer can also be downloaded from the www.silabs.com/cp2130ek web site. This package includes:
Documentation—data sheet, application notes, user’s guide, quick start guide, and SLAB_USB_SPI
interface library API documentation.
CP2130 Demo—Example software utilizing the SLAB_USB_SPI interface library API to demonstrate the
CP2130 Evaluation Board features.
CP2130 Evaluation Tool—Advanced evaluation software used to execute low-level SPI transfers, control
GPIO outputs, and retrieve device information.
AN721 Device Customization Utility—Customization software used to program the one-time
programmable ROM.
Library—SLAB_USB_SPI interface library and header files used to interface between a user application
and USB driver such as Microsoft’s WinUSB driver.
The Windows installer should launch automatically after inserting the DVD. Follow the instructions to install the
SDK to the system.
