FT2232H – Hi-Speed Dual USB UART/FIFO IC

USB High Speed Power Delivery Series are now available here. With added Power Delivery(PD) functionality to the existing High Speed Series.

The FT2232H is FTDI’s 5th generation of USB devices. The FT2232H is a USB 2.0 Hi-Speed (480Mb/s) to UART/FIFO IC. It has the capability of being configured in a variety of industry standard serial or parallel interfaces.

The FT2232H is available in Pb-free (RoHS compliant) 64-pin LQFP/QFN and 56-pin QVFN packages.

Building on the innovative features of the FT2232, the FT2232H has two multi-protocol synchronous serial engines (MPSSEs) which allow for communication using JTAG, I2C and SPI on two channels simultaneously.

Key Hardware Features

• Single chip USB to dual serial / parallel ports with a variety of configurations.
• Entire USB protocol handled on the chip. No USB specific firmware programming required.
• USB 2.0 High Speed (480Mbits/second) and Full Speed (12Mbits/second) compatible.
• Dual Multi-Protocol Synchronous Serial Engine (MPSSE) to simplify synchronous serial protocol (USB to JTAG, I2C, SPI or bit-bang) design.
• Dual independent UART or FIFO ports configurable using MPSSEs.
