The FT232R is a USB to serial UART interface with the subsequent superior choices:
- Single chip USB to asynchronous serial data change interface. Full USB protocol handled on the chip. No USB explicit firmware programming required.
- Completely built-in 1024 bit EEPROM storing gadget descriptors and CBUS I/O configuration.
- Completely built-in USB termination resistors.
- Completely built-in clock know-how with no exterior crystal required plus optionally out there clock output alternative enabling a glue-less interface to exterior MCU or FPGA.
- Data change fees from 300 baud to a few Mbaud (RS422, RS485, RS232) at TTL ranges.
- 128 byte get hold of buffer and 256 byte transmit buffer utilising buffer smoothing experience to allow for high data throughput.
- FTDI’s royalty-free Digital Com Port (VCP) and Direct (D2XX) drivers take away the requirement for USB driver progress sometimes.
- Distinctive USB FTDIChip-ID™ perform.
- Configurable CBUS I/O pins.
- Transmit and acquire LED drive indicators.
- UART interface help for 7 or 8 data bits, 1 or 2 stop bits and odd / even / mark / home / no parity
