FT232R USB UART I.C. Datasheet Version 1.04
Single chip USB to asynchronous serial data
transfer interface.
Entire USB protocol handled on the chip - No
USB-specific firmware programming required.
UART interface support for 7 or 8 data bits, 1 or 2
stop bits and odd / even / mark / space / no parity.
Fully assisted hardware or X-On / X-Off software
handshaking.
Data transfer rates from 300 baud to 3 Megabaud
(RS422 / RS485 and at TTL levels) and 300 baud
to 1 Megabaud (RS232).
256 byte receive buffer and 128 byte transmit
buffer utilising buffer smoothing technology to allow
for high data throughput.
FTDI’s royalty-free VCP and D2XX drivers
eliminate the requirement for USB driver
development in most cases.
In-built support for event characters and line break
condition.
New USB FTDIChip-ID™ feature.
New configurable CBUS I/O pins.
Auto transmit buffer control for RS485 applications.
Transmit and receive LED drive signals.
New 48MHz, 24MHz,12MHz, and 6MHz clock
output signal Options for driving external MCU or
FPGA.
FIFO receive and transmit buffers for high data
throughput.
Adjustable receive buffer timeout.
Synchronous and asynchronous bit bang mode
interface options with RD# and WR# strobes.
New CBUS bit bang mode option.
