USB to 4-Bit SPI / FT1248 interface
FT220X – Full Speed USB to 4-Bit SPI / FT1248 Bridge
This USB2.0 Full Speed IC offers a compact bridge to 4-Bit SPI/FT1248 interfaces. The device is a FT1248 slave, capable of operating up to 500kBit/s, with low power consumption (8mA). The FT220X includes the complete FT-X series feature set and enables USB to be added into a system design quickly and easily over an FT1248 interface
Key Hardware Features
FT1248 serial parallel interface in 1, 2 or 4 bit wide mode.
Similar to an SPI slave in 1 bit mode
Entire USB protocol handled on the chip. No USB specific firmware programming required.
Fully integrated 2048 byte MTP Memory for storing device descriptors and CBUS I/O configuration.
Fully integrated clock generation with no external crystal required plus optional clock output selection enabling a glue-less interface to external MCU or FPGA.
Data transfer rates to 500 kByte/s
512 byte receive buffer and 512 byte transmit buffer utilising buffer smoothing technology to allow for high data throughput.
FTDI’s royalty-free Virtual Com Port (VCP) and Direct (D2XX) drivers eliminate the requirement for USB driver development in most cases.
Configurable CBUS I/O pin.
Device supplied pre-programmed with unique USB serial number.
Supports bus powered, self powered and high-power bus powered USB configurations.
Integrated +3.3V level converter for USB I/O.
