Staging:CC3120 & CC3220 FTDI Flashing

Instruduction
All new boards should already have the correct FTDI templates flashed into the FTDI chips. However, if your board is not recognized, installing the driver from the SDK is not working, or the built-in FTDI template is corrupted, you'll need to flash the FTDI chip again.

The software used here is FT_PROG, which you can obtain directly from the FTDI website.

FT_PROG EEPROM Programming Utility
FT_PROG is a free EEPROM programming utility for use with FTDI devices. It is used for modifying EEPROM contents that store the FTDI device descriptors to customize designs.

FT_PROG requires the Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0 installed on your system to run the application. This can be obtained from the Microsoft Website. If your system does not have .NET 4.0 installed please download the file from the above link. To install, double click on the dotnetfx.exe and follow the instructions in the wizard.
