During the APWorkbench setup process FTDI drivers are optionally installed. Can you explain what it is for and if I should install it?

, via USB.

Driver installation is required in case evaluation boards using APWLink have to be operated (typically all

amplifier boards). FTDI drivers are not required for MEMS Microphone evaluation kit since it makes use of a different USB interface,

Updated drivers can be downloaded from FTDI website (D2XX version):
