Microchip CDC Firmware with My OWN VID/PID ?

can we use Microchip CDC firmware and change the VID/PID to another one ?
or change the device name ?

Thanks

You can change the devicename in the following file, find the String Definitions and change it as you need it.

..\fw\cdc\inf\win2k_winxp\mchpcdc.inf

;------------------------------------------------------------------------------
; String Definitions

[Strings]
MCHP="Microchip Technology Inc."
MFGNAME="Microchip Technology Inc."
DESCRIPTION="Communications Port"
SERVICE="USB RS-232 Emulation Driver"




If you want to change the VID/PID you have to change it in two files, in the mchpcdc.inf file for windows and in the usbdsc.c file for the pic. The VID and the PID must match in both files.

File:
..\fw\cdc\inf\win2k_winxp\mchpcdc.inf

[DeviceList]
%DESCRIPTION%=DriverInstall, USB\VID_04D8&PID_000A

and in this File:

..\fw\cdc\autofiles\usbdsc.c
(VID = Vendor ID and PID = Product ID)


/* Device Descriptor */
rom USB_DEV_DSC device_dsc=
{
sizeof(USB_DEV_DSC), // Size of this descriptor in bytes
