The FT4232HL-REEL is Hi-Speed to Quad Channel FTDI’s 5th generation of USB devices. The FT4232H is a USB 2.0 High Speed (480Mb/s) to UART/MPSSE ICs. It has the capability of being configured in a variety of industry standard serial interfaces.

The FT4232H has four independent configurable interfaces. Two of these interfaces can be configured as UART, JTAG, SPI, I2C or bit-bang mode, using an MPSSE, with independent baud rate generators. The remaining two interfaces can be configured as UART or bit-bang.

Features:

• Single chip USB to quad serial ports with a variety of configurations
• USB 2.0 High Speed (480 Mbits/Second) and Full Speed (12 Mbits/Second) compatible
• Two Multi-Protocol Synchronous Serial Engine (MPSSE) on channel A and channel B, to simplify
• Synchronous serial protocol (USB to JTAG, I2C, SPI or bit-bang) design
• Independent Baud rate generators
• Adjustable receive buffer timeout
• +3.3 V single supply operating voltage range. ESD protection for FT4232H IO’s:
