4.9 Fast Serial Interface Mode Description
Fast Serial Interface Mode provides a method of communicating with an external device over USB using 4
wires that can have opto-isolators in their path, thus providing galvanic isolation between systems. Fast
serial mode is enabled by setting the appropriate bits in the external EEPROM. The fast serial mode can
be held in reset by setting a bit value of 0x10 using the FT_SetBitMode D2xx driver command. While this
bit is set the device is held reset – data can be sent to the device, but it will not be sent out by the device
until the device is enabled again. This is done by sending a bit value of 0x00 using the Set Bit Mode
command.
When the FT232H is configured in Fast Serial Interface mode the IO timing of the signals used are shown
in Figure 4.17 and the timings are shown in Table 4.5 Fast Serial Interface Signal Timings.
