UMFT221XA-01

UMFT221XA-01 is a FT221X based USB to 8bit SPI/FT1248 development module. The UMFT221XA is a development module for FTDI‟s FT221XQ, one of the devices from FTDI‟s range of USB to serial data interface integrated circuit devices. FT221X is a USB to SPI/FT1248 interface with a battery charger detection feature, which can allow batteries to be charged with a higher current from a dedicated charger port (without the FT221X being enumerated). In addition, asynchronous and synchronous bit bang interface modes are available. The internally generated clock (6MHz, 12MHz and 24MHz) can be brought out on the CBUS pin to be used to drive a microprocessor or external logic.

• UMFT221XA is a module which is designed to plug into a standard 0.3” wide 20 pin DIP socket
• On board USB ‘mini-B’ socket allows module to be connected to PC via standard A to mini-B USB cable
• Pin length is 4.6mm
• Functionally configurable using solder links
• Default solder links setup enables module to function without peripheral wires or application board

Warnings

Failure to properly remove solder from JP1 and JP2 can cause a direct short between two different power supplies resulting in damage to the UMFT221XA-01 module and the target circuit.
