Copyright (c) 2010 Future Technology Devices International Limited 13 Document No.: FT_000053 FT232R USB UART IC Datasheet Version 2.10 Clearance No.: FTDI# 38 4 Function Description The FT232R is a USB to serial UART interface device which simplifies USB to serial designs and reduces external component count by fully integrating an external EEPROM, USB termination resistors and an integrated clock circuit which requires no external crystal, into the device. It has been designed to operate efficiently with a USB host controller by using as little as possible of the total USB bandwidth available. 4.1 Key Features Functional Integration. Fully integrated EEPROM, USB termination resistors, clock generation, AVCC filtering, POR and LDO regulator. Configurable CBUS I/O Pin Options. The fully integrated EEPROM allows configuration of the Control Bus (CBUS) functionality, signal inversion and drive strength selection. There are 5 configurable CBUS I/O pins. These configurable options are 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. TXDEN - transmit enable for RS485 designs. PWREN# - Power control for high power, bus powered designs. TXLED# - for pulsing an LED upon transmission of data. RXLED# - for pulsing an LED upon receiving data. TX&RXLED# - which will pulse an LED upon transmission OR reception of data. SLEEP# - indicates that the device going into USB suspend mode. CLK48 / CLK24 / CLK12 / CLK6 - 48MHz, 24MHz, 12MHz, and 6MHz clock output signal options. The CBUS pins can also be individually configured as GPIO pins, similar to asynchronous bit bang mode. It is possible to use this mode while the UART interface is being used, thus providing up to 4 general purpose I/O pins which are available during normal operation. An application note, AN232R-01, available from FTDI website (www.ftdichip.com) describes this feature. The CBUS lines can be configured with any one of these output options by setting bits in the internal EEPROM. The device is supplied with the most commonly used pin definitions pre-programmed - see Section 8 for details. Asynchronous Bit Bang Mode with RD# and WR# Strobes. The FT232R supports FTDIs previous chip generation bit-bang mode. In bit-bang mode, the eight UART lines can be switched from the regular interface mode to an 8-bit general purpose I/O port. Data packets can be sent to the device and they will be sequentially sent to the interface at a rate controlled by an internal timer (equivalent to the baud rate pre-scaler). With the FT232R device this mode has been enhanced by outputting the internal RD# and WR# strobes signals which can be used to allow external logic to be clocked by accesses to the bit-bang I/O bus. This option will be described more fully in a separate application note available from FTDI website (www.ftdichip.com). Synchronous Bit Bang Mode. The FT232R supports synchronous bit bang mode. This mode differs from asynchronous bit bang mode in that the interface pins are only read when the device is written to. This makes it easier for the controlling program to measure the response to an output stimulus as the data returned is synchronous to the output data. An application note, AN232R-01, available from FTDI website (www.ftdichip.com) describes this feature. FTDIChip-IDTM. The FT232R also includes the new FTDIChip-IDTM security dongle feature. This FTDIChip-IDTM feature allows a unique number to be burnt into each device during manufacture. This number cannot be reprogrammed. This number is only readable over USB and forms a basis of a security dongle which can be used to protect any customer application software being copied. This allows the possibility of using the FT232R in a dongle for software licensing. Further to this, a renewable license scheme can be implemented based on the FTDIChip-IDTM number when encrypted with other information. This encrypted number can be stored in the user area of the FT232R internal EEPROM, and can be decrypted, then compared with the protected FTDIChip-IDTM to verify that a license is valid. Web based applications can be used to maintain product licensing this way. An application note, AN232R-02, available from FTDI website (www.ftdichip.com) describes this feature. The FT232R is capable of operating at a voltage supply between +3.3V and +5V with a nominal operational mode current of 15mA and a nominal USB suspend mode current of 70A. This allows greater margin for peripheral designs to meet the USB suspend mode current limit of 2.5mA. An integrated level converter within the UART interface allows the FT232R to interface to UART logic running at +1.8V, 2.5V, +3.3V or +5V.

The internal EEPROM in the FT232R is used to store USB Vendor ID (VID), Product ID (PID), device serial number, product description string and various other USB configuration descriptors. The internal EEPROM is also used to configure the CBUS pin functions. The FT232R is supplied with the internal EEPROM pre-programmed as described in Section 8. A user area of the internal EEPROM is available to system designers to allow storing additional data. The internal EEPROM descriptors can be programmed in circuit, over USB without any additional voltage requirement. It can be programmed using the FTDI utility software called MPROG, which can be downloaded from FTDI Utilities on the FTDI website (www.ftdichip.com). +3.3V LDO Regulator. The +3.3V LDO regulator generates the +3.3V reference voltage for driving the USB transceiver cell output buffers. It requires an external decoupling capacitor to be attached to the 3V3OUT regulator output pin. It also provides +3.3V power to the 1.5k internal pull up resistor on USBDP. The main function of the LDO is to power the USB Transceiver and the Reset Generator Cells rather than to power external logic. However, it can be used to supply external circuitry requiring a +3.3V nominal supply with a maximum current of 50mA. USB Transceiver. The USB Transceiver Cell provides the USB 1.1 / USB 2.0 full-speed physical interface to the USB cable. The output drivers provide +3.3V level slew rate control signalling, whilst a differential input receiver and two single ended input receivers provide USB data in, Single-Ended-0 (SE0) and USB reset detection conditions respectfully. This function also incorporates the internal USB series termination resistors on the USB data lines and a 1.5k pull up resistor on USBDP. USB DPLL. The USB DPLL cell locks on to the incoming NRZI USB data and generates recovered clock and data signals for the Serial Interface Engine (SIE) block. Internal 12MHz Oscillator - The Internal 12MHz Oscillator cell generates a 12MHz reference clock. This provides an input to the x4 Clock Multiplier function. The 12MHz Oscillator is also used as the reference clock for the SIE, USB Protocol Engine and UART FIFO controller blocks. Clock Multiplier / Divider. The Clock Multiplier / Divider takes the 12MHz input from the Internal Oscillator function and generates the 48MHz, 24MHz, 12MHz and 6MHz reference clock signals. The 48Mz clock reference is used by the USB DPLL and the Baud Rate Generator blocks. Serial Interface Engine (SIE). The Serial Interface Engine (SIE) block performs the parallel to serial and serial to parallel conversion of the USB data. In accordance with the USB 2.0 specification, it performs bit stuffing/un-stuffing and CRC5/CRC16 generation. It also checks the CRC on the USB data stream. USB Protocol Engine. The USB Protocol Engine manages the data stream from the device USB control endpoint. It handles the low level USB protocol requests generated by the USB host controller and the commands for controlling the functional parameters of the UART in accordance with the USB 2.0 specification chapter 9. FIFO RX Buffer (128 bytes). Data sent from the USB host controller to the UART via the USB data OUT endpoint is stored in the FIFO RX (receive) buffer. Data is removed from the buffer to the UART transmit register under control of the UART FIFO controller. (Rx relative to the USB interface). FIFO TX Buffer (256 bytes). Data from the UART receive register is stored in the TX buffer. The USB host controller removes data from the FIFO TX Buffer by sending a USB request for data from the device data IN endpoint. (Tx relative to the USB interface). UART FIFO Controller. The UART FIFO controller handles the transfer of data between the FIFO RX and TX buffers and the UART transmit and receive registers. UART Controller with Programmable Signal Inversion and High Drive. Together with the UART FIFO Controller the UART Controller handles the transfer of data between the FIFO RX and FIFO TX buffers and the UART transmit and receive registers. It performs asynchronous 7 or 8 bit parallel to serial and serial to parallel conversion of the data on the RS232 (or RS422 or RS485) interface. Control signals supported by UART mode include RTS, CTS, DSR, DTR, DCD and RI. The UART Controller also provides a transmitter enable control signal pin option (TXDEN) to assist with interfacing to RS485 transceivers. RTS/CTS, DSR/DTR and XON / XOFF handshaking options are also supported. Handshaking is handled in hardware to ensure fast response times. The UART interface also supports the RS232 BREAK setting and detection conditions.

Both these features are configurable in the EEPROM. Baud Rate Generator - The Baud Rate Generator provides a 16x clock input to the UART Controller from the 48MHz reference clock. It consists of a 14 bit pre-scaler and 3 register bits which provide fine tuning of the baud rate (used to divide by a number plus a fraction or "sub-integer"). This determines the baud rate of the UART, which is programmable from 183 baud to 3 Mbaud. The FT232R supports all standard baud rates and non-standard baud rates from 183 Baud up to 3 Mbaud. Achievable non-standard baud rates are calculated as follows Baud Rate = 3000000 / (n + x) where n can be any integer between 2 and 16,384 ( = 2 ) and x' can be a sub-integer of the value 0, 0.125, 0.25, 0.375, 0.5, 0.625, 0.75, or 0.875. When n = 1, x = 0, i.e. baud rate divisors with values between 1 and 2 are not possible. 14 This gives achievable baud rates in the range 183.1 baud to 3,000,000 baud. When a non-standard baud rate is required simply pass the required baud rate value to the driver as normal, and the FTDI driver will calculate the required divisor, and set the baud rate. See FTDI application note AN232B-05 on the FTDI website (www.ftdichip.com) for more details. RESET Generator - The integrated Reset Generator Cell provides a reliable power-on reset to the device internal circuitry at power up. The RESET# input pin allows an external device to reset the FT232R. RESET# can be tied to VCC or left unconnected if not being used.

The illustrations have omitted pin numbers for ease of understanding since the pins differ between the FT232RL and FT232RQ package options. All USB power configurations illustrated apply to both package options for the FT232R device. Please refer to Section 3 for the package option pin-out and signal descriptions. 6.1 USB Bus Powered Configuration Vcc Ferrite Bead 1 TXD VCC RXD 2 USBDM 3 USBDP RTS# CTS# 4 10nF + VCCIO FT232R DTR# NC 5 DSR# RESET# SHIELD NC DCD# OSCI RI# OSCO GND CBUS0 Vcc CBUS1 100nF 4.7uF + 100nF GND 3V3OUT A G N D G N D G N D G N D T E S T CBUS2 CBUS3 CBUS4 GND GND Figure 6.1 Bus Powered Configuration Figure 6.1 Illustrates the FT232R in a typical USB bus powered design configuration. A USB bus powered device gets its power from the USB bus. Basic rules for USB bus power devices are as follows - i) ii) iii) iv) v) On plug-in to USB, the device should draw no more current than 100mA. In USB Suspend mode the device should draw no more than 2.5mA. A bus powered high power USB device (one that draws more than 100mA) should use one of the CBUS pins configured as PWREN# and use it to keep the current below 100mA on plug-in and 2.5mA on USB suspend. A device that consumes more than 100mA cannot be plugged into a USB bus powered hub. No device can draw more than 500mA from the USB bus. The power descriptors in the internal EEPROM of the FT232R should be programmed to match the current drawn by the device. A ferrite bead is connected in series with the USB power supply to reduce EMI noise from the FT232R and associated circuitry being radiated down the USB cable to the USB host. The value of the Ferrite Bead depends on the total current drawn by the application. A suitable range of Ferrite Beads is available from Steward (www.steward.com), for example Steward Part # MI0805K400R-10. Note: If using PWREN# (available using the CBUS) the pin should be pulled to VCCIO using a 10k resistor. Copyright (c) 2010 Future Technology Devices International Limited 23 Document No.: FT_000053 FT232R USB UART IC Datasheet Version 2.10 Clearance No.: FTDI# 38 6.2 Self Powered Configuration Figure 6.2 Self Powered Configuration Figure 6.2 illustrates the FT232R in a typical USB self powered configuration. A USB self powered device gets its power from its own power supply, VCC, and does not draw current from the USB bus. The basic rules for USB self powered devices are as follows - i) ii) iii) A self powered device should not force current down the USB bus when the USB host or hub controller is powered down. A self powered device can use as much current as it needs during normal operation and USB suspend as it has its own power supply. A self powered device can be used with any USB host, a bus powered USB hub or a self powered USB hub. The power descriptor in the internal EEPROM of the FT232R should be programmed to a value of zero (self powered). In order to comply with the first requirement above, the USB bus power (pin 1) is used to control the RESET# pin of the FT232R device. When the USB host or hub is powered up an internal 1.5k resistor on USBDP is pulled up to +3.3V (generated using the 4K7 and 10k resistor network), thus identifying the device as a full speed device to the USB host or hub. When the USB host or hub is powered off, RESET# will be low and the FT232R is held in reset. Since RESET# is low, the internal 1.5k resistor is not pulled up to any power supply (hub or host is powered down), so no current flows down USBDP via the 1.5k pull-up resistor. Failure to do this may cause some USB host or hub controllers to power up erratically. Figure 6.2 illustrates a self powered design which has a +4V to +5.25V supply. Note: 1. When the FT232R is in reset, the UART interface I/O pins are tri-stated. Input pins have internal 200k pull-up resistors to VCCIO, so they will gently pull high unless driven by some external logic. 2. When using internal FT232R oscillator the VCC supply voltage range must be +4.0V to 5.25V. 3. When using external oscillator the VCC supply voltage range must be +3.3V to 5.25V Any design which interfaces to +3.3 V or +1.8V would be having a +3.3V or +1.8V supply to VCCIO.

This requirement includes external logic. Some external logic has the ability to power itself down into a low current state by monitoring the PWREN# signal. For external logic that cannot power itself down in this way, the FT232R provides a simple but effective method of turning off power during the USB suspend mode. Figure 6.3 shows an example of using a discrete P-Channel MOSFET to control the power to external logic. A suitable device to do this is an International Rectifier (www.irf.com) IRLML6402, or equivalent. It is recommended that a "soft start" circuit consisting of a 1k series resistor and a 0.1F capacitor is used to limit the current surge when the MOSFET turns on. Without the soft start circuit it is possible that the transient power surge, caused when the MOSFET switches on, will reset the FT232R or the USB host/hub controller. The soft start circuit example shown in Figure 6.3 powers up with a slew rate of approximaely12.5V/ms. Thus supply voltage to external logic transitions from GND to +5V in approximately 400 microseconds. As an alternative to the MOSFET, a dedicated power switch IC with inbuilt "soft-start" can be used. A suitable power switch IC for such an application is the Micrel (www.micrel.com) MIC2025-2BM or equivalent. With power switching controlled designs the following should be noted: i) The external logic to which the power is being switched should have its own reset circuitry to automatically reset the logic when power is re-applied when moving out of suspend mode. ii) Set the Pull-down on Suspend option in the internal FT232R EEPROM. iii) One of the CBUS Pins should be configured as PWREN# in the internal FT232R EEPROM, and used to switch the power supply to the external circuitry. This should be pulled high through a 10 k resistor. iv) For USB high-power bus powered applications (one that consumes greater than 100mA, and up to 500mA of current from the USB bus), the power consumption of the application must be set in the Max Power field in the internal FT232R EEPROM. A high-power bus powered application uses the descriptor in the internal FT232R EEPROM to inform the system of its power requirements. v) PWREN# gets its VCC from VCCIO. For designs using 3V3 logic, ensure VCCIO is not powered down using the external logic. In this case use the +3V3OUT.

The external logic can be selected between +3.3V and +5V using the jumper switch. This jumper is used to allow the FT232R to be interfaced with a +3.3V or +5V logic devices. The VCCIO pin is either supplied with +5V from the USB bus (jumper pins1 and 2 connected), or from the +3.3V output from the FT232R 3V3OUT pin (jumper pins 2 and 3 connected). The supply to VCCIO is also used to supply external logic. With bus powered applications, the following should be noted: i) ii) To comply with the 2.5mA current supply limit during USB suspend mode, PWREN# or SLEEP# signals should be used to power down external logic in this mode. If this is not possible, use the configuration shown in Section 6.3. The maximum current sourced from the USB bus during normal operation should not exceed 100mA, otherwise a bus powered design with power switching (Section 6.3) should be used. Another possible configuration could use a discrete low dropout (LDO) regulator which is supplied by the 5V on the USB bus to supply between +1.8V and +2.8V to the VCCIO pin and to the external logic. In this case VCC would be supplied with the +5V from the USB bus and the VCCIO would be supplied from the output of the LDO regulator. This results in the FT232R I/O pins driving out at between +1.8V and +2.8V logic levels. For a USB bus powered application, it is important to consider the following when selecting the regulator: i) ii) The regulator must be capable of sustaining its output voltage with an input voltage of +4.35V. An Low Drop Out (LDO) regulator should be selected. The quiescent current of the regulator must be low enough to meet the total current requirement of <= 2.5mA during USB suspend mode. A suitable series of LDO regulators that meets these requirements is the MicroChip/Telcom (www.microchip.com) TC55 series of devices. These devices can supply up to 250mA current and have a quiescent current of under 1A.

In this application, a TTL to RS232 Level Converter IC is used on the serial UART interface of the FT232R to convert the TTL levels of the FT232R to RS232 levels. This level shift can be done using the popular "213" series of TTL to RS232 level converters. These "213" devices typically have 4 transmitters and 5 receivers in a 28-LD SSOP package and feature an in-built voltage converter to convert the +5V (nominal) VCC to the +/- 9 volts required by RS232. A useful feature of these devices is the SHDN# pin which can be used to power down the device to a low quiescent current during USB suspend mode. A suitable level shifting device is the Sipex SP213EHCA which is capable of RS232 communication at up to 500k baud. If a lower baud rate is acceptable, then several pin compatible alternatives are available such as the Sipex SP213ECA, the Maxim MAX213CAI and the Analogue Devices ADM213E, which are all suitable for communication at up to 115.2k baud. If a higher baud rate is required, the Maxim MAX3245CAI device is capable of RS232 communication rates up to 1Mbaud. Note that the MAX3245 is not pin compatible with the 213 series devices and that the SHDN pin on the MAX device is active high and should be connect to PWREN# pin instead of SLEEP# pin. In example shown, the CBUS0 and CBUS1 have been configured as TXLED# and RXLED# and are being used to drive two LEDs.

This example uses the Sipex SP481 device. Equivalent devices are available from Maxim and Analogue Devices. The SP481 is a RS485 device in a compact 8 pin SOP package. It has separate enables on both the transmitter and receiver. With RS485, the transmitter is only enabled when a character is being transmitted from the UART. The TXDEN signal CBUS pin option on the FT232R is provided for exactly this purpose and so the transmitter enable is wired to CBUS2 which has been configured as TXDEN. Similarly, CBUS3 has been configured as PWREN#. This signal is used to control the SP481s receiver enable. The receiver enable is active low, so it is wired to the PWREN# pin to disable the receiver when in USB suspend mode. CBUS2 = TXDEN and CBUS3 = PWREN# are the default device configurations of the FT232R pins. RS485 is a multi-drop network; so many devices can communicate with each other over a two wire cable interface. The RS485 cable requires to be terminated at each end of the cable. A link (which provides the 120 termination) allows the cable to be terminated if the SP481 is physically positioned at either end of the cable. In this example the data transmitted by the FT232R is also present on the receive path of the SP481.This is a common feature of RS485 and requires the application software to remove the transmitted data from the received data stream. With the FT232R it is possible to do this entirely in hardware by modifying the example shown in Figure 7.2 by logically ORing the FT232R TXDEN and the SP481 receiver output and connecting the output of the OR gate to the RXD of the FT232R. Note that the TXDEN is activated 1 bit period before the start bit. TXDEN is deactivated at the same time as the stop bit. This is not configurable.

In this application, two TTL to RS422 Level Converter ICs are used on the serial UART interface of the FT232R to convert the TTL levels of the FT232R to RS422 levels. There are many suitable level converter devices available. This example uses Sipex SP491 devices which have enables on both the transmitter and receiver. Since the SP491 transmitter enable is active high, it is connected to a CBUS pin in SLEEP# configuration. The SP491 receiver enable is active low and is therefore connected to a CBUS pin PWREN# configuration. This ensures that when both the SP491 transmitters and receivers are enabled then the device is active, and when the device is in USB suspend mode, the SP491 transmitters and receivers are disabled. If a similar application is used, but the design is USB BUS powered, it may be necessary to use a P-Channel logic level MOSFET (controlled by PWREN#) in the VCC line of the SP491 devices to ensure that the USB standby current of 2.5mA is met. The SP491 is specified to transmit and receive data at a rate of up to 5 Mbaud. In this example the maximum data rate is limited to 3 Mbaud by the FT232R.

In this application the FT232R uses TXD and RXD for transmission and reception of data, and RTS# / CTS# signals for hardware handshaking. Also in this example CBUS0 has been configured as a 12MHz output to clock the MCU. Optionally, RI# could be connected to another I/O pin on the MCU and used to wake up the USB host controller from suspend mode. If the MCU is handling power management functions, then a CBUS pin can be configured as PWREN# and would also be connected to an I/O pin of the MCU.

The FT232R has 3 configuration options for driving LEDs from the CBUS. These are TXLED#, RXLED#, and TX&RXLED#. Refer to Section 3.5 for configuration options.

In this application one of the CBUS pins is used to indicate transmission of data (TXLED#) and another is used to indicate receiving data (RXLED#). When data is being transmitted or received the respective pins will drive from tri-state to low in order to provide indication on the LEDs of data transfer. A digital one-shot is used so that even a small percentage of data transfer is visible to the end user.

This requires that the device is powered with VCC(min)=+4.0V. This supply voltage can be taken from the USB VBUS. Applications which require using an external oscillator, VCC= +3.3V, must do so in the following order: 1. When device powered for the very first time, it must have VCC > +4.0V. This supply is available from the USB VBUS supply = +5.0V. 2. The EEPROM must then be programmed to enable external oscillator. This EEPROM modification cannot be done using the FTDI programming utility, MPROG. The EEPROM can only be reconfigured from a custom application. Please refer to the following applications note on how to do this: http://www.ftdichip.com/Documents/AppNotes/AN_100_Using_The_FT232_245R_With_External_ Osc(FT_000067).pdf 3. The FT232R can then be powered from VCC=+3.3V and an external oscillator. This can be done using a link to switch the VCC supply. The FT232R will fail to operate when the internal oscillator has been disabled, but no external oscillator has been connected.
