Title: FTDI Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) Library
Post by: adouglas_ptl on June 26, 2020, 03:06:57 PM

Hello,

I'm currently developing using an FT800 chip and am trying to get icons to appear on my lcd.  I have read several application notes as well the programmer's guide and keep seeing mentions of the FTDI Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) code.  However, I cannot seem to find it anywhere!

I am sure I must just be missing it so could someone please point me to where I can find the HAL code?

Thanks in advance!

Amy

Hello Amy,

Example Hardware Abstraction Layers (HAL) are included in all of our example projects, for example in our main SampleApp these are the Gpu_Hal.c files.

The following application note covers an example of how to develop a HAL for a given MCU, in this case a PIC:
BRT_AN_008 FT81x Creating a Simple Library For PIC MCU (https://brtchip.com/wp-content/uploads/Support/Documentation/Application_Notes/ICs/EVE/BRT_AN_008_FT81x_Creating_a_Simple_Library_For_PIC_MCU.pdf)
