11.Nov.2018 Update

I have lost track of how many updates Microsoft has released since I first penned this article a few years ago. Working to troubleshoot an issue in an online forum I was pleased to find Silicon Labs has continued to release updated drivers.

Reviewing the release notes also available at the link below the latest drivers are certified with later versions of Windows 10.

The version on the Yaesu website is several years old.

DriverVer=03/28/2016,6.7.3.350

Current version available from Silicon Labs

DriverVer = 05/23/2018,10.1.3.2130

Install was easy it updated the existing driver install.

Download Award Silicon Labs Dual CP2105 USB to UART Bridge: Enhanced COM Port other device drivers or install DriverPack Solution software for driver update.

I am running Windows 10 Pro 64 Bit and am able to run the latest version of PCC downloaded from the Yaesu website without any special settings. Ham Radio Deluxe also works just fine with the updated driver.

With all of the security issues folks are having with Windows as Microsoft hardens the operating system. I would recommend following the Microsoft broad recommendation of keeping drivers updated.

I received an email from Ed Ve7ED raising awareness to a new USB serial driver from Silicon Labs, this is the chip which Yaesu uses in the FTDX3000 and I suspect other serial to USB radios and cables. Note if you are using Linux or OSX drivers for those platforms are also available. I have installed the 64Bit driver on my Windows 10 system and no runs, drips or errors.

Also worth noting drivers are available for OSX, Linux and Android if you are for example using FLDigi on those platforms.

Thanks, Ed for sharing.

CP2102 is a USB to UART IC from Silicon Labs. It is my favourite converter IC and I have been using USB to RS232 module and USB to TLL modules based on CP2102 for couple of years without any issues. CP2102 is a cheaper alternative to the costlier ftdi IC (ft232) but cp2102 is a bit difficult to solder as it comes in QFN-28 package and is very small (just 5mmx5mm) in size. The main advantage of CP2102 is that no extra external components are required.

CP2102 IC is used in lot of Arduino UNO Clones, arduino Nano, Node MUC and even in ESP32 Development boards. In this tutorial I will provide you with step by step process to install CP2102 USB Driver in windows.

Step by Step Installation of CP2102 Drivers

Initially connect your hardware having CP2102 USB to Serial IC to your PC. In the device manager it will show “CP2102 USB to UART Bridge Controller” (as shown in below figure) which means that your PC has detected the drivers but please note the “!” sign which indicated cp2102 drivers have not been installed.

Now extract the “CP210x_Windows_Drivers” in a folder and in that you will find applications named “CP210xVCPInstaller_x64” & “CP210xVCPInstaller_x86”. If your system is 64 bit then run “CP210xVCPInstaller_x64.exe” application and if it is 32 bit then run “CP210xVCPInstaller_x86” application.

Once you run your application it will show you the welcome screen click “Next” on the screen. Then the license Agreement screen is shown select “I agree” and then on “Next”.

Just relax now the CP2102 drivers will start installing…..and within few seconds completed screen will be displayed.

Once installed it will show driver successfully installed. Now go again back to device manager and there you will see that the driver has been successfully been installed and a com port has been allotted. In below image you can see that “com4” has been allotted for cp2102 IC in my laptop.

Drivers for the CP2102 have now been installed successfully. I have tested this drivers and installation process in Windows XP, windows 7. Will test is soon on Windows 8 & windows 10.

You can see in above image that Port Number 4 has been allocated to this IC. If you want you can even change the virtual com port number from Device Manager.
