FT234XD-R FTDI

FT234XD-R Description & Features

FT234XD-R FTDI USB to Serial UART Interface IC are USB full-speed, low-power, single-channel (RX/TX) devices that have an enhanced UART interface. They incorporate the FTDI FT234XD-R IC, which features a USB 2.0 full-speed compliant interface, a 5V tolerant UART interface, and a 300mA current limit. The FT234XD-R also supports many popular serial protocols such as RS232, RS422, and RS485.

They are available in a variety of package options, including a 28-pin SOIC and a 16-pin QFN. The FT234XD-R is ideal for applications that require a low-cost, single-channel USB to serial interface. It can be used to connect a device to a PC, or to connect a serial device to another serial device. It can also be used with various operating systems, including Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux. The FT234XD-R is also compatible with USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 devices. The FT234XD-R is a great choice for applications that require a reliable and cost-effective USB to serial interface.

FT234XD-R Features

 Single-chip USB to asynchronous serial data
transfer interface.

 Entire USB protocol is handled on the chip. No USB
specific firmware programming required.


 Fully integrated 2048-byte multi-time programmable (MTP) memory, storing device descriptors and CBUS I/O configuration.


 Fully integrated clock generation with no external
crystal required plus optional clock output selection
enabling a glue-less interface to external MCU or
FPGA.


 Data transfer rates from 300 baud to 3 Mbaud
(RS422, RS485, and RS232) at TTL levels.
 512-byte receive buffer and 512-byte transmit
buffer utilizing buffer smoothing technology to
allow for high data throughput.


 FTDI’s royalty-free Virtual Com Port (VCP) and
Direct (D2XX) drivers eliminate the requirement
for USB driver development in most cases.


 Configurable CBUS I/O pin.
 Transmit and receive LED drive signals.
 UART interface support for 7 or 8 data bits, 1 or 2
stop bits and odd / even / mark/space / no parity
 Synchronous and asynchronous bit bang interface
options with RD# and WR# strobes.

 USB Battery Charging Detection. Allows for USB
peripheral devices to detect the presence of a
higher power source to enable improved
charging.


 The device is supplied pre-programmed with unique
USB serial number.


 USB Power Configurations; supports bus-powered,
self-powered and bus-powered with power switching
 Integrated +3.3V level converter for USB I/O.
