Future Technology Devices International (FTDI) has unveiled the next generation of its USB-UART bridge family, the FT232R. This device includes onboard EEPROM, as well as a master clock generator, 3,3 V LDO regulator, reset generator and USB termination resistors. Only two external decoupling capacitors are required for minimal configuration. In addition to a full set of modem control signals, the device features five I/O pins that can be configured in EEPROM to provide several functions. One such function is an output clock, which can be used to drive an external MCU or FPGA. When each device is manufactured, it is assigned a unique number (called FTDIChip-ID) that cannot be changed. This feature can be used by designers to protect their application software from being copied. The FT232R features a wide range of royalty-free FTDI-developed drivers for 32 and 64 bit operating systems. FT232R comes in SSOP-28 and miniature QFN-32 package. A version with a parallel FIFO interface is also available.
