FT232RL USB TO TTL SSOP-28-208mil USB ICs

FT232R – USB UART IC

The FT232R device is added to FTDI’s range of USB UART interface Integrated Circuit Devices. The FT232R is a USB to serial UART interface with optional clock generator output, and the new FTDIChip-ID™ security dongle feature. In addition, asynchronous and synchronous bit-bang interface modes are available. USB to serial designs using the FT232R have been further simplified by fully integrating the external EEPROM, clock circuit, and USB resistors onto the device.

The FT232R is available in a Pb-free (RoHS compliant) compact 28-lead SSOP package.
