UMFT230XA USB to Basic
UART Development Module
UMFT230XA is a USB to Basic UART DIP module with a 0.3” row pitch.
1.1 Features
1 Introduction
The UMFT230XA is a development module for
FTDI’s FT230XQ, one of the devices from FTDI’s
range of USB interface bridging integrated circuit
devices. FT230X is a USB to UART 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 FT230X 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 of the on one of the CBUS pin to be used to
drive a microprocessor or external logic.
The UMFT230XA is fitted with a FT230XQ; all the
features of the FT230X can be utilized with the
UMFT230XA. For a full list of the FT230X’s features
please see the FT230X datasheet which can be found
by clicking here.
In addition to the features listed in the FT230X
datasheet, the UMFT230XA has the following features:
Small PCB assembly module designed to fit a
standard 7.62mm (0.3”) wide 16 pin DIP socket.
Pins are on a 2.54mm (0.1”) pitch.
On board USB ‘mini-B’ socket allows module to be
connected to a PC via a standard A to mini-B USB
cable.
The UMFT230XA is a module which is designed to
plug into a standard 0.3” wide 16 pin DIP socket.
All components used, including the FT230XQ are
Pb-free (RoHS compliant).
Functionally configurable using solder links. The
default solder links setup enables the module to
function without peripheral wires or application
board. Other configurations enable external power
supply options and variation of logic reference
levels.
