It is ideal for development purposes to quickly prove the functionality of adding USB to a target design. The FT4232H datasheet, DS_FT4232H, is available at http://www.ftdichip.com. Figure 1.1 FT4232H-56Q Mini Module The FT4232H-56Q on the Mini Module is FTDI’s 5th generation of USB devices. The FT4232H is a USB 2.0 High Speed (480Mb/s) to UART/MPSSE IC. The device features four interfaces that can be independently configured for asynchronous or synchronous serial interfaces. Two of these have an option to independently configure an MPSSE engine. This allows the FT4232H to operate as two UART/Bit-Bang ports plus two MPSSE engines used to emulate JTAG, SPI, I2C, Bit-bang or other synchronous serial modes. All components used, including the FT4232H-56Q are Pb-free (RoHS compliant). The FT4232H-56Q Mini Module connects the signals of the FT4232H-56Q IC to two 26-pin dual-row headers which allow easy connection to PCB header sockets and ribbon cables. The FT4232H-56Q Mini Module requires USB device drivers, available free from http://www.ftdichip.com, which are used to make the FT4232H-56Q on the Mini Module appear as a four virtual COM ports (VCP). This then allows the user to communicate with the USB interface via a standard PC serial emulation port (TTY). Another FTDI USB driver, the D2XX driver, can also be used with application software to directly access the FT4232H on the Mini Module through a DLL. This is illustrated in Figure 1.2 Figure 1.2 Using the FT4232H-56Q Mini Module Copyright © Future Technology Devices International Limite d 1 FT4232H-56Q Mini Module Datasheet Version 1.0 D oc ument N o.: FT _001273 C learance N o.: FT D I#491 Device Drivers for the FT4232H-56Q Mini Module are available free from http://www.ftdichip.com.

The FT4232H-56Q Mini Module allows configuration with both USB Bus -powered designs and USB Selfpowered designs: Copyright © Future Technology Devices International Limite d 8 FT4232H-56Q Mini Module Datasheet Version 1.0 D oc ument N o.: FT _001273 C learance N o.: FT D I#491 USB Bus-powered: 1) JP1 is connected VBUS to VCC (CN3, pin 1 to CN3, pin 3). This connection takes the power from the USB bus (VBUS) and connects it to the voltage regulator input on the FT4232H-56Q Mini Module. The voltage regulator, in turn, provides V3V3, VPLL and VUSB power inputs to the FT4232H-56Q chip. 2) JP2 is connected V3V3 to VIO (CN2, pins 1, 3 & 5 to CN2, pins 11 and CN3, pins 12 & 22). This connection provides the correct 3.3VDC operating voltage for VCCIO on the FT4232H56Q chip. USB Self-Powered: 1) Remove the JP1 and JP2 jumper. 2) Leave VBUS (CN3, pin 1) unconnected. 3) Connect an external 5.0VDC power supply to VCC (5.0VDC to CN3, pin 3). This connection takes power from an external power supply and connects it to the voltage regulator input on the FT4232H-56Q Mini Module. See the FT4232H data sheet for allowable VCC input voltage ranges. 4) Connect V3V3 to VIO (CN2, pins 1, 3 & 5 to CN2, pins 11 and CN3, pins 12 & 22). This connection provides the correct 3.3VDC operating voltage for VCCIO on the FT4232H-56Q chip. 5) Use FT_Prog to change the USB power descriptor to “Self-Powered”. This setting indicates to the host system that the USB Host port does not need to supply power to the device. FT_Prog is a utility provided by FTDI to program various features of the FT-series USB client ICs. In order to access settings for the FT4232H-56Q, FT_Prog is required. FT_PROG is available via the Utilities section of the FTDI web site.
