The MAX1454EVSYS development board connects to a PC via USB, however after installing the 1454R11 software and USB driver, the PC is unable to install the correct driver.
The dev board is identified as a "Maxim MINIQUSB Module" which is different to that listed in the driver documentation where it is "USB <-> Serial". The USB driver is "CDM 2.06.00 WHQL Certified" and this correlates with the FTDI chip on the MAX1454EVSYS board. The provided driver installs with no issues.
I have tried various operating systems: Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows 7 and Windows 10. In all cases the board is recognised as a MINIQUSB Module and I'm unable to locate an alternative driver for this. I've even downloaded the latest version of the CDM driver that supports Windows 10.
The board is essentially useless without a working driver. The MAX1454 application executes perfectly fine but is unable to detect a MAX1454 EV System board.
Has anyone experienced a similar issue and can assist?
Thank you,
