FT232H SINGLE CHANNEL HI-SPEED USB TO MULTIPURPOSE UART/FIFO IC
Datasheet Version 1.0
Clearance No.: FTDI #199
4.9.3 Fast Serial Data Interface Example
Figure 4.20 shows example of two Agilent HCPL-2430 (see the semiconductor section at
www.avagotech.com) Hi-Speed opto-couplers used to optically isolate an external device which
interfaced to USB using the FT232H. In this example VCC5V is the USB VBUS supply and VCCE is the
supply to the external device.
Care must be taken with the voltage used to power the photo-LED. It must be the same voltage as that
the FT232H I /Os are driving to or the LED‟s may be permanently on. Limiting resistors should be fitted in
the lines that drive the diodes. The outputs of the opto-couplers are open-collector and require a pull-up
resistor.
