Multi-Purpose UART/FIFO Controllers. The FT232H has one independent UART/FIFO Controller. This
controls the UART data, 245 FIFO data, Fast Serial (opto isolation) or Bit-Bang mode which can be
selected by SETUP (SetBitMode) command. Each Multi-Purpose UART/FIFO Controller also contains an
MPSSE (Multi Protocol Synchronous Serial Engine). Using this MPSSE, the Multi-Purpose UART/FIFO
Controller can be configured under software command, to have one of the MPSSE (SPI, I
USB Protocol Engine and FIFO control. The USB Protocol Engine controls and manages the interface
between the UTMI PHY and the FIFOs of the chip. It also handles power management and the USB
protocol specification.
Port FIFO TX Buffer (1Kbytes). Data from the Host PC is stored in these buffers to be used by the
Multi-purpose UART/FIFO controllers. This is controlled by the USB Protocol Engine and FIFO control
block.
Port FIFO RX Buffer (1Kbytes). Data from the Multi-purpose UART/FIFO controllers is stored in these
blocks to be sent back to the Host PC when requested. This is controlled by the USB Protocol Engine and
FIFO control block.
RESET Generator – The integrated Reset Generator Cell provides a reliable power-on reset to the device
internal circuitry at power up. The RESET# input pin allows an external device to reset the FT232H.
RESET# should be tied to VCCIO (+3.3V) if not being used.
Baud Rate Generators – The Baud Rate Generators provides a x16 or a x10 clock input to the UART‟s
from a 120MHz reference clock and consists of a 14 bit pre-scaler and 4 register bits which provide fine
tuning of the baud rate (used to divide by a number plus a fraction). This determines the Baud Rate of
the UART which is programmable from 183 baud to 12 Mbaud. See FTDI application note

EEPROM Interface. If the external EEPROM is fitted, the FT232H can be configured as an asynchronous
serial UART (default mode), parallel FIFO (245) mode, FT1248, fast serial (opto isolation) or CPU-Style
FIFO. The EEPROM should be a 16 bit wide configuration such as a 93LC56B or equivalent capable of a
1Mbit/s clock rate at VCCIO = +2.97V to 3.63V. The EEPROM is programmable in-circuit over USB using
a utility program called
+1.8/3.3V LDO Regulator. The +3.3/+1.8V LDO regulator generates +1.8 volts for the core and the
USB transceiver cell and +3.3V for the IO and the internal PLL and USB PHY power supply.
UTMI PHY. The Universal Transceiver Macrocell Interface (UTMI) physical interface cell. This block
handles the Full speed / Hi-Speed SERDES (serialise – deserialise) function for the USB TX/RX data. It
also provides the clocks for the rest of the chip. A 12 MHz crystal must be connected to the OSCI and
OSCO pins or 12 MHz Oscillator must be connected to the OSCI, and the OSCO is left unconnected. A 12K
Ohm resistor should be connected between REF and GND on the PCB.
The UTMI PHY functions include:
Functional Block Descriptions
