    • Add support for setting the SPI frequency.
    • Add opcode to control the programmer's output drivers.
    • Enable serprog on Windows.
  • buspirate_spi
    • Improvements to support different firmware versions safely.
    • Support the new fast SPI mode present in Bus Pirate firmware v5.5 or newer.
    • Add user interface to activate the Bus Pirate pull-up resistors.
  • ftdi_spi
