+2020-09 update: we have now produced our own DUART28 adapter that takes the
+place of PLDkit FT2232D breakout boards.  The article that follows was written
+in 2019-12, before our DUART28 was even conceived, and it was written for
+PLDkit FT2232D adapters.  The new cable that needs to be used with DUART28 is
+different: DUART28 brings out a 10-pin header in the same pinout as our Calypso
+boards, thus the connection between the two boards becomes a straight-through
+10-wire ribbon cable.

 The Calypso chip has two UARTs, called MODEM and IrDA in the chip docs.  The
 primary UART (MODEM) has 4 signals (TxD, RxD, RTS and CTS), whereas the other
 UART (IrDA) has data leads only (TxD and RxD).  TI's C-Sample and D-Sample
