Functional Problems of FT200XD
3.1 Revision A
3.1.1 USB Data Transfer
Introduction:
An issue has been identified where the transfer of data over USB stops unexpectedly.
Problem:
The device is put into suspend mode during a transfer of certain data patterns most notable with binary
zeros. This can halt the data transfer in certain circumstances and will require the device to be reenumerated to recover.
NB. It is the presence of this data pattern on the USB bus regardless of whether the data is intended for
the FT200XD or other devices (e.g. a broadcast) on the bus that forces the suspend state.
Workaround:
This issue can be avoided by utilising the keep awake function of the chip. This will disable the USB
suspend function of the chip and is therefore an intermediate workaround until revision D silicon is
released with a permanent fix.
NB. With the workaround the chip will never enter lower powered suspend. However the keep awake
current will be approximately 3mA.
To enable the keep awake function in the EEPROM, one of the CBUS pins needs to be configured as KeepAwake#. This pin then needs to be tied to ground on the PCB. The FT_Prog utility can be used to
configure the CBUS pin.
Package specific:
The effected packages are listed in Table 5.

3.1.2 USB 3.0 Hosts
Introduction:
An issue has been identified where the FT200XD will not enumerate when connected to certain USB 3.0
Hosts. So far FTDI have identified ONE such host.
Problem:
Certain USB 3.0 Hosts exhibit reduced reset recovery times after a USB reset, which can at times be
faster or close to the USB 2.0 specification limit. The USB 2.0 specification states a USB reset recovery
time of 10ms and in general almost all hosts allocate a much longer period than this. The FT200XD
device may not enumerate if the reset recovery time is reduced.
This issue has been seen on one USB 3.0 Host controller and has not been seen on a USB 2.0 Host
controller or other USB 3.0 Host controllers.
Workaround:
Reconnect the device to a USB 2.0 host. This issue has been seen only on one particular USB 3.0 Host
controllers.

Electrical and Timing specification deviations of FT200XD
4.1 Revision A
4.1.1 3V3OUT
Introduction:
The FT200XD has a 3V3OUT pin to allow users to power external circuits with 3.3 volts.
Problem:
During enumeration when a load is applied to the 3V3OUT pin, no output voltage is present.
Workaround:
The external circuitry must be powered off during enumeration of the FT200XD. A power Mosfet can be
used in conjunction with the PWREN# pin. PWREN# is used to show enumeration has been successful
and the external circuity can now be switched on.

4.2.2 Internal 3V3 Regulator
Introduction:
The FT200XD uses an internal regulator to generate 3V3 from a 5V source (VCC). The source should be
variable from 3V3 to 5V.
Problem:
The VCC supply to the regulator must not drop below 4.3V for the correct 3V3 regulated output to be
produced.
Workaround:
VCC must not be supplied below 4.3V. This issue will be corrected at silicon revision C.

The effected packages are listed in Table 13.
