FT240X
(USB 8-BIT FIFO IC)
USB Battery Charger Detection. Allows for USB
peripheral devices to detect the presence of a higher
power source to enable improved charging.
The FT240X is a USB to parallel FIFO
interface with the following advanced
features:
Device supplied pre-programmed with unique USB
serial number.
Single chip USB to parallel FIFO bidirectional
data transfer interface.
USB Power Configurations; supports bus- powered,
self-powered and bus-powered with power
switching.
Entire USB protocol handled on the chip. No
USB specific firmware programming required.
Fully integrated 2048 byte multi-time-
programmable (MTP) memory, storing device
descriptors and FIFO I/O configuration.
Integrated +3.3V level converter for USB I/O.
True 3.3V CMOS drive output and TTL input;
operates down to 1V8 with external pull-ups.
Tolerant of 5V input.
Fully integrated clock generation with no
external crystal required plus optional clock
output selection enabling glue-less interface to
external MCU or FPGA.
Configurable I/O pin output drive strength; 4
mA(min) and 16 mA(max).
Integrated power-on-reset circuit.
Data transfer rates up to 1Mbyte / second.
Fully integrated AVCC supply filtering - no external
filtering required.
512 byte receive buffer and 512 byte transmit
buffer utilising buffer smoothing technology to
allow for high data throughput.
+5V Single Supply Operation.
FTDI’s royalty-free Virtual Com Port (VCP) and
Direct (D2XX) drivers eliminate the
requirement for USB driver development in
most cases.
Internal 3V3/1V8 LDO regulators
Low operating and USB suspend current; 8mA
(active-typ) and 125uA (suspend-typ).
UHCI/OHCI/EHCI host controller compatible.
USB 2.0 Full Speed capable.
Configurable FIFO interface I/O pins.
Synchronous and asynchronous bit bang
interface options.
Extended operating temperature range; -40 to 85⁰C.
Available in compact Pb-free 24 Pin SSOP and QFN-
24 packages (both RoHS compliant).
