UMFT234XD Datasheet Version 1.1 Document Reference No.: FT_000801 Clearance No.: FTDI# 327 Future Technology Devices International Datasheet UMFT234XD Breakout Modules UMFT234XD is a USB to UART breakout module

1 Introduction

The UMFT234XD breakout module utilizes FTDI’s FT234XD IC to convert USB to UART.

1.1 Features

The UMFT234XD is a breakout board that converts USB2.0 Full-Speed to UART. These modules do not have a USB connector, instead, the modules plug directly into the USB host connector and the pads of the PCB makes electrical contact with the electrical contacts of the USB connector. The UART interface operates at +3.3V voltage levels, however all I/Os are 5V tolerant.

1.2 Ordering Information

UMFT234XD-01 UART USB to UART with four control bus lines, 3.3V power out limited to 50mA and 5V with as safety fuse. UART signals available via 8 pin female connector. UMFT234XD-NC UART USB to UART with four control bus lines, 3.3V power out limited to 50mA and 5V with as safety fuse. UART signals available via 8 pads on the PCB.

3 UMFT234XD Signals and Configurations

CN1 connects directly to a USB host or HUB port, or can be connected to a USB extension cable. This connects to USB signals, 5V USB Bus power and GND. When connecting the module to a USB host or HUB the signal pads should be facing upwards when connecting to a horizontal connector and be facing right for vertical connectors. If the module is plugged in upside down no connectivity will be made between PCB and HUB, no damage will occur from plugging the module in the wrong way.

This output can be used to control power to external logic. TXLED# CBUS0 Transmit data LED drive – open drain pulses low when transmitting data via UART. RXLED# CBUS0 Receive data LED drive – open drain pulses low when receiving data via UART. TX&RXLED# CBUS0 LED drive – open drain pulses low when transmitting or receiving data via UART. SLEEP# CBUS0 Goes low during USB suspend mode. Typically used to power down external logic to RS232 level converter IC in USB to RS232 converter designs CLK24MHz CBUS0 24 MHz Clock output. CLK12MHz CBUS0 12 MHz Clock output. CLK6MHz CBUS0 6 MHz Clock output.** GPIO CBUS0 CBUS bit bang mode option. Allows up to 4 of the CBUS pins to be used as general purpose I/O. A separate application note, AN232R-01, available from FTDI website (www.ftdichip.com) describes in more detail how to use CBUS bit bang mode. BCD_Charger CBUS0 Battery Charge Detect indicates when the device is connected to a dedicated battery charger host. Active high output. NOTE: Requires a 10K pull-down to remove power up toggling. BCD_Charger# CBUS0 Active low BCD Charger, driven by an open drain to ground with no internal pull-up. BitBang_WR# CBUS0 Synchronous and asynchronous bit bang mode WR# strobe output. BitBang_RD# CBUS0 Synchronous and asynchronous bit bang mode RD# strobe output. VBUS_Sense CBUS0 Input to detect when VBUS is present. Time_Stamp CBUS0 Toggle signal which changes state each time a USB SOF is received Keep_Awake# CBUS0 Active Low input, prevents the chip from going into suspend. Table 3.3 CBUS Configuration Control * PWREN# must be used with a 10kΩ resistor pull up. **When in USB suspend mode the outputs clocks are also suspended.

3.4 Configuring the MTP ROM

The FT234XD IC on the module contains an embedded MTP ROM, this can be used to specify the functions of the CBUS0 pin, the current drive on each signal pin, current limit for the USB bus and the descriptors of the device. These features can be programmed using FTDI’s programming utility FT_Prog. For details on using FT_Prog, please see the FT_PROG User Guide. When programming the MTP ROM please note: i) The Max Bus Power setting of the MTP ROM should specify the maximum current to be drawn from the USB host/hub when enumerated. For high-powered USB devices the current limit when enumerated is between 100mA and 500mA, for low-powered USB devices the current limit is 100mA.

8 Internal MTP ROM Configuration

Following a power-on reset or a USB reset the FT234XD will scan its internal MTP ROM and read the USB configuration descriptors stored there. The default values programmed into the internal MTP ROM in the FT234XD used on the UMFT234XD are shown in Table 8.1. Parameter Value Notes USB Vendor ID (VID) 0403h FTDI default VID (hex) USB Product UD (PID) 6015h FTDI default PID (hex) Serial Number Enabled? Yes Serial Number See Note A unique serial number is generated and programmed into the MTP ROM during final test of the UMFT234XD module. Pull down I/O Pins in USB Suspend Disabled Enabling this option will make the device pull down on the UART interface lines when the power is shut off (PWREN# is high). Manufacturer Name FTDI Product Description UMFT234XD Max Bus Power Current 90mA Power Source Bus Powered Device Type FT234XD USB Version 0200 Returns USB 2.0 device description to the host. Note: The device is a USB 2.0 Full Speed device (12Mb/s). Remote Wake Up Enabled Taking RI# low will wake up the USB host controller from suspend. High Current I/Os Disabled Enables the high drive level on the serial and CBUS I/O pins. Load VCP Driver Enabled Makes the device load the VCP driver interface for the device. CBUS0 PWREN# Table 8.1 Default Internal MTP ROM Configuration The internal MTP ROM in the FT234XD can be programmed over USB using the utility program FT_PROG. FT_PROG can be downloaded from www.ftdichip.com. Users who do not have their own USB vendor ID but who would like to use a unique Product ID in their design can apply to FTDI for a free block of unique PIDs.
