To measure the USB data transfer rate, run
Streamer.exe from C:\Program Files (x86)\
Cypress\EZ-USB FX3 SDK\1.3\application\
cpp\streamer\x86\Release
In the Streamer application, select the
following parameters
- Endpoint…. BULK IN
- Packets per Xfer - 256
- Xfers to Queue - 64
Click Start
The Streamer application displays the USB
transfer rate in KB/s as shown above
The transfer rate shown in the above picture
is when the board is connected to a USB
3.0-enabled computer. The transfer rate may
vary depending on USB 3.0 host controller's
capability. If a USB 2.0 enable computer is
used, data throughput will be limited to USB
2.0 speeds
Note:
To manually bind the driver, in Windows Device Manger, locate the FX3 device under Other devices.
Right-click the device and select Update Driver Software. Choose Browse my computer for driver software.
Browse to the location <Install Directory>\Cypress\SuperSpeed Explorer Kit\1.0\Driver\bin. The default
Install Directory is C:\Program Files for 32-bit operating system (OS) and C:\Program Files (x86) for 64-bit
OS
Select a driver based on OS and click on Next. For e.g. the driver for Win7 64-bit OS is located at
C:\Program Files (x86)\Cypress\SuperSpeed Explorer Kit\1.0\Driver\bin\Win7\x64
