TTL-232R USB to TTL Serial Converter Cable
The TTL-232R is a USB to TTL serial converter cable incorporating FTDI's FT232RQ USB - Serial UART interface IC device, the latest device to be added to FTDI's range of USB UART interface Integrated Circuit Devices. It is designed to allow for a fast, simple way to connect devices with a TTL level serial interface to USB. The FT232RQ chip used by the TTL-232R is housed within the USB `A' connector. A 1.8 (6 foot) meter cable is terminated with a 6 way 0.1" pitch header socket which provides access to the transmit (Tx), receive (Rx), RTS#, and CTS#, as well as VCC (5V out) and GND. The FT232R is a USB to serial UART interface with optional clock generator output, and the new FTDIChip-IDTM security dongle feature. In addition, asynchronous and synchronous bit bang interface modes are available. USB to serial interface designs using the FT232R have been further simplified by fully integrating the external EEPROM, clock circuit and USB resistors onto the device.

2. Features and Enhancements of FT232R applicable to TTL-232R
2.1 FT232R Key Features
Page 3
The TTL-232R uses FTDI's FT232RQ USB to serial IC device. This section summarises the key features and enhancements of the FT232RQ which apply to the TTL-232R USB to serial TTL converter cable. For further details, and a full features and enhancements description consult the FT232R datasheet, which is available from the FTDI website. Lower Operating and Suspend Current - The device operating supply current has been further reduced to 15mA, and the suspend current has been reduced to around 70A. This allows greater margin for peripheral devices incorporating the TTL-232R to meet the USB suspend current limit of 500A. Low USB Bandwidth Consumption - The operation of the USB interface to the FT232R IC, and thus the TTL-232R has been designed to use as little as possible of the total USB bandwidth available from the USB host controller. High Output Drive Option - The UART interface I/O pins on the TTL-232R (RXD, TXD, RTS#, and CTS#) are configured to use the FT232R's high output drive option. This option makes the FT232R I.C.'s I/O pins drive out at three times the standard signal drive level thus allowing multiple devices to be driven, or devices that require a greater signal drive strength to be interfaced to the FT232R. This option is enabled in the internal EEPROM. UART Pin Signal Inversion - The sense of each of the eight UART signals can be individually inverted by setting options in the internal EEPROM. Thus, CTS# (active low) can be changed to CTS (active high), or TXD can be changed to TXD#. FTDIChip-IDTM - Each FT232R is assigned a unique number which is burnt into the device at manufacture. This ID number cannot be reprogrammed by product manufacturers or end-users. This allows the possibility of using FT232R based dongles for software licensing. Further to this, a renewable license scheme can be implemented based on the FTDIChip-IDTM number when encrypted with other information. This encrypted number can be stored in the user area of the FT232R internal EEPROM, and can be decrypted, then compared with the protected FTDIChip-IDTM to verify that a license is valid. Web based applications can be used to maintain product licensing this way. An application note describing this feature is available separately from the FTDI website. Improved EMI Performance - The reduced operating current and improved on-chip VCC decoupling significantly improves the ease of PCB design requirements for the FT232R in order to meet FCC, CE and other EMI related specifications. The TTL-232R has passed FCC and CE testing. Programmable Receive Buffer Timeout - The receive buffer timeout is used to flush remaining data from the receive buffer. This time defaults to 16ms, but is programmable over USB in 1ms increments from 1ms to 255ms, thus allowing the device to be optimised for protocols that require fast response times from short data packets. Baud Rates - The TTL-232R supports all standard baud rates and non-standard baud rates from 300 Baud up to 3 Megabaud. Achievable non-standard baud rates are calculated as follows Baud Rate = 3000000 / (n + x) where n can be any integer between 2 and 16,384 ( = 214 ) and x can be a sub-integer of the value 0, 0.125, 0.25, 0.375, 0.5, 0.625, 0.75, or 0.875. When n = 1, x = 0, i.e. baud rate divisors with values between 1 and 2 are not possible. This gives achievable baud rates in the range 183.1 baud to 3,000,000 baud. When a non-standard baud rate is required simply pass the required baud rate value to the driver as normal, and the FTDI driver will calculate the required divisor, and set the baud rate. See FTDI application note AN232B-05 for more details. Extended Operating Temperature Range - The TTL-232R is capable of operating over an extended temperature range of -40 to +85 C thus allowing the device to be used in automotive and industrial applications.

Figure 4 shows the TTL-232R circuit schematic. Note that there is an option internal to the cable design which allows for the TTL I/O pins supply voltage to be changed to 3.3V instead of 5V, thus making the TTL-232R suitable for interfacing with 3.3V logic (part number TTL-232R-3V3). Customised versions of these cables are also available. Contact FTDI sales if you are interested in any of these options.

The internal EEPROM in the FT232R can be reprogrammed over USB using the utility program MPROG. MPROG can be downloaded from the FTDI website. Version 2.8a or later is required for the FT232R chip. Users who do not have their own USB Vendor ID but who would like to use a unique Product ID in their design can apply to FTDI for a free block of unique PIDs. Contact FTDI support for this service.
