Description

The USB 2.0 Hi-Speed to UART cable incorporates FTDI’s FT232H USB to UART interface IC device which handles all the USB signalling and protocols. The cable provides a fast, simple way to connect devices with 3.3 volt digital interfaces to USB.

Key Features

  • and enhancement descriptions please refer to the FT232H datasheet
  • The cables digital interface logic is 3.3 volts
  • The USB side of the cable is USB powered and is USB 2.0 Hi-Speed compatible
  • The cable is 1.8m long and supports a data transfer rate up to 12 Mbaud
  • The C232HD UART cable requires USB drivers, available free from http://.ftdichip
  • which are used to make the FT232H in the cable appear as a virtual port (VCP)
  • This then allows the user to municate with the USB interface via a standard PC serial emulation port (for example TTY)
  • Another FTDI USB driver, the D2XX, is used with application software to directly access the FT232H on the cable though a DLL
  • This is illustrated in the Figure 1-1
  • Part Number C232HD-DDHSP-0
