FT2232H-56Q Mini Module
Overview
The FT2232H-56Q Mini Module is a compact USB-to-multi-interface bridge based on FTDI's 5th generation Hi-Speed USB technology. It supports USB 2.0 Hi-Speed data rates and provides two independent channels that can be configured for asynchronous serial (UART) or synchronous serial protocols like SPI, I2C, and JTAG.
Why Choose This Part
The module handles the entire USB protocol on-chip, eliminating the need for USB-specific firmware development. It features a small USB Micro B connector and dual-channel flexibility, allowing one hardware module to handle two different communication protocols simultaneously.
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
Engineers can begin by plugging the module into a standard breadboard and connecting it to a PC via a Micro B USB cable. Configuration is managed through FTDI's D2XX or VCP drivers, and the on-board jumpers allow for quick selection of USB power modes and VIO source levels.
