UMFT201XA-01

UMFT201XA-01 is an USB to I2C development module for the FT201X - FTEX customer evaluation module. The UMFT201XA is a development module for FTDI’s FT201XQ, one of the devices from FTDI’s range of USB interface bridging integrated circuit devices. FT201X is a USB to I2C server 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 FT201X 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 one of the CBUS pins to be used to drive a microprocessor or external logic. This module is designed to plug into a standard 0.3inch wide 16 pin DIP socket. The UMFT201XA-01 has two solder links fixed to the top side of the PCB. These solder link can be adjusted by removing the solder linking the two PADs to produce an open or by placing a solder bridge to produce a short.

• Module designed to plug into a standard 0.3″ wide 16 pin DIP socket
• USB ‘mini-B’ socket allows module to be connected to PC/USB host via standard A to mini-B USB cable
• Pin length is 5.6mm
• 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 UMFT201XA-01 module and the target circuit.
