1. Ensure that the USB cable is not plugged in to the Buck Converter Battery Charger
Design Module’s USB J1 connector.
2. Navigate to the following filepath and double-click the CDM20802_setup.exe file to
begin the driver installation.
\device drivers\FTDI Uart
3. The installation process will begin and you should observe output similar to the fol-
lowing messages on the screen of your PC:

4. When the installation is complete, plug in the B connector of the USB cable into the
Board, and the larger A connector into the USB port of your PC.
5. If the driver installation was successful, the Ports (COM & LPT) section of the Device
Manager will display USB Serial Port (COMx) or similar message, as highlighted in
