FTDI Chip FT232H UART / FIFO ICs

FTDI FT232H Single-Channel USB 2.0 Hi-Speed (480Mb/s) to UART / FIFO ICs have the capability of being configured in a variety of industry-standard serial or parallel interfaces. FTDI 232H UART / FIFO ICs feature single-channel USB to serial/parallel ports with a variety of configurations. FT232H devices handle the entire USB protocol on the chip.

These FTDI UART / FIFO ICs are designed for a variety of applications, including single-chip USB to UART (RS232, RS422, or RS485), USB to FIFO, and more. FTDI UM232H USB-to-serial / FIFO development modules use the FT232H chip to handle the USB signaling and protocols. The UM232H module is ideal for development purposes to quickly demonstrate the functionality of adding USB to a target design.

Features

Single-channel USB to serial/parallel ports with a variety of configurations
