FT4232H – Hi-Speed Quad USB UART IC

USB High Speed Power Delivery Series are now available here. With added Power Delivery(PD) functionality to the existing High Speed Series.

The FT4232H is FTDI’s 5th generation of USB devices. The FT4232H is a USB 2.0 Hi-Speed (480Mb/s) to UART IC. It has the capability of being configured in a variety of industry standard serial or parallel interfaces.

The FT4232H features 4 UARTs. 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.

The FT4232H is available in Pb-free (RoHS compliant) 64-pin LQFP/QFN and 56-pin VQFN packages.

Key Hardware Features

  • Single chip USB to quad serial ports with a variety of configurations.
  • Entire USB protocol handled on the chip. No USB specific firmware programming required.
  • USB 2.0 High Speed (480Mbits/Second) and Full Speed (12Mbits/Second) compatible.
  • Two Multi-Protocol Synchronous Serial Engine (MPSSE) on channel A and channel B, to simplify synchronous serial protocol (USB to JTAG, I2C, SPI or bit-bang) design.
  • Independent Baud rate generators.
  • RS232/RS422/RS485 UART Transfer Data Rate up to 12Mbaud. (RS232 Data Rate limited by external level shifter).
  • FTDI’s royalty-free Virtual Com Port (VCP) and Direct (D2XX) drivers eliminate the requirement for USB driver development in most cases.
  • Optional traffic TX/RX indicators can be added with LEDs and an external 74HC595 shift register.
  • Adjustable receive buffer timeout.
  • Support for USB suspend and resume conditions via PWREN#, SUSPEND# and RI# pins.
  • Highly integrated design includes +1.8V LDO regulator for VCORE, integrated POR function and on chip clock multiplier PLL (12MHz – 480MHz).
  • FTDI FT232B style, asynchronous serial UART interface option with full hardware handshaking and modem interface signals.
  • Fully assisted hardware or X-On / X-Off software handshaking.
  • UART Interface supports 7/8 bit data, 1/2 stop bits, and Odd/Even/Mark/Space/No Parity.
  • Auto-transmit enable control for RS485 serial applications using TXDEN pin.
  • Operational configuration mode and USB Description strings configurable in external EEPROM over the USB interface.
  • Low operating and USB suspend current.
  • Configurable I/O drive strength (4,8,12 or 16mA) and slew rate.
  • Supports bus powered, self powered and high-power bus powered USB configurations.
  • UHCI/OHCI/EHCI host controller compatible.
  • USB Bulk data transfer mode (512 byte packets in Hi-Speed mode).
  • Dedicated Windows DLLs available for USB to JTAG, USB to SPI, and USB to I2C applications.
  • +1.8V (chip core) and +3.3V I/O interfacing (+5V Tolerant).
  • Extended -40ºC to 85ºC industrial operating temperature range.
  • Compact 64-LD Lead Free LQFP/LQFN and 56-LD VQFN packages.
  • +3.3V single supply operating voltage range.
