Silicon Laboratories CP210x VCP Drivers for Windows 2000/XP/2003 Server/Vista is a legacy driver package from Silicon Laboratories, Inc. that enables CP210x USB-to-UART bridge devices to appear as standard COM ports in Windows. By creating a virtual COM port, it allows existing serial applications and tools to communicate over USB without modification—ideal for USB-to-serial adapters, development boards, and embedded products based on CP210x controllers.

Key points:

• Provides a Virtual COM Port interface for CP210x USB-to-UART bridge devices.
• Maintains compatibility with legacy serial applications that use standard COM port APIs.
• Supports the listed legacy Windows platforms (2000, XP, Server 2003, and Vista), with 32-bit and, where applicable, 64-bit editions.
• Integrates with Windows Plug and Play; the COM port number can be adjusted in Device Manager.
• Distributed and digitally signed by Silicon Laboratories.

Installation notes:

• Administrator privileges are required.
• Close any serial/terminal applications before installation.
• Connect the device after installation if prompted by the installer.
• A system restart may be required on older Windows versions.
• The installer may place files in a Silicon Labs directory on the system drive (for example, a folder named “SiLabsMCU_9”).

Compatibility note:

• This package targets legacy Windows versions. For Windows 7 or later, obtain the current CP210x driver package from Silicon Labs.
