DLP-PROTO
Prototyping Board for the DLP-USB245M and DLP-USB232M
USB Adapters
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The DLP-PROTO makes easy work of experimenting with the DLP-USB245M and DLP-USB232M USB
adapter modules. It is perfectly suited for prototyping a USB to RS-232 converter design or becoming
familiar with the FT2xxBM’s newest feature known as the Bit-Bang Mode. Or, you can add your own
microcontroller to the prototyping area to get a jumpstart on developing your new product.
The DLP-PROTO directly accepts either the DLP-USB245M or DLP-USB232M USB adapter modules.
Eight LED’s and eight switches are provided for use with the Bit-Bang Mode and can be disabled in
designs that require the use of all available power from the host PC. Three additional LED’s are provided
for monitoring the status of the RXLED#, TXLED#, RXF#, and TXE# signals. External power jacks and
selection jumpers are provided to allow power source selection. Power for the DLP-USB2xxM module
and DLP-PROTO board can be taken from either the host computer (PC or Mac) or from your external
Revision 1.0

... A single MOSFET transistor is used to drop the board's current consumption to nearly zero when the host computer and DLP-USB2xxM go to Standby mode. Jumper JP6 allows selection of the sleep mode that the board is to follow. (Refer to the schematics for the DLP-PROTO board located at the end of this document for additional details.)

... LED’s if all available USB port power is needed for user electronics. RS-232 INTERFACE The DLP-PROTO allows for easy implementation of a USB to RS-232 converter. A SP213E high-performance RS232 transceiver can be connected between the DLP-USB232M and a DB9 male connector by simply inserting jumper wires into the J2 header. All eight standard RS232 signals (RX, TX, RI, DTR, CTS, RTS, DSR, and DCD) are available for use in your design ...
