Abstract

This project is the API library of CH347T USB-SPI/I2C/UART bridge chip based on Python.

Standard USB-HID mode setting of CH347T chip supported only

This library provides full access of SPI/I2C/UART settings and communication with CH347 USB-SPI/I2C/UART bridge chip in Python language.

For demonstration and code reference please refer to the demo.py file in source page.

CH347-Chip Official Site

Installation

pip install ch347api

Requirements

Python >= 3.7 hidapi

CAUTION

The communication protocol with CH347 through USB-HID I wrote in this project based on the official demonstration APP. In other words that it was inferred from captured HID package when APP communicates.

THUS, THIS API MAY NOT FULLY CAPABLE OF EVERY FUNCTION IN OFFICIAL API FROM CH347DLL.DLL.

Update Notes

2024-01-12

  1. Now with fully compatible UART (UART1 with pins TXD1/RXD1/RTS1/CTS1/DTR1) support under mode 3 (which is HID mode),
  2. Baudrate supports ranging from 1.2K to 9M
  3. Multithread receiver for UART (optional, default is on) to receive the data in parallel

2024-01-08

  1. Added independent I2C interface class objects (I2CDevice) and SPI interface class objects (SPIDevice)
  2. Added new demo file demo.py to demonstrate the usage of classes added above (simplified code)
  3. Added device lock to make thread safe

2023-08-06

  1. Now with fully compatible I2C support, I2C clock speed level: 0 -> 20KHz, 1 -> 100KHz, 2 -> 400KHz, 3 -> 750KHz
  2. Added test.py for demonstration
