CHIPI-X10

Chipi-X Cable Datasheet Version 1.1 Document Reference No.: FT_000634 Clearance No.: FTDI# 288 Future Technology Devices International Ltd Datasheet Chipi-X Cable Chipi-X is a USB to full-handshake RS232 cable with a male DB9 connector. This cable is available with or without an enclosure. 1 Introduction The Chipi-X cable is a USB to RS232 level full-handshake UART cable. Chipi-X utilises FTDI’s FT231XS USB to full-handshake UART IC and FT3243S RS232 transceiver IC. A male DB9 (aka DE9) connector provides the connectivity for RS232 communications and a USB-A plug tethered by a 10cm cable to the PCB provides connectivity for USB communications. All components used are Pb-free (RoHS compliant). 1.1 Features  Entire USB protocol handled on the FT231XS chip  FTDI’s royalty-free VCP and D2XX drivers eliminate the requirement for USB driver development in most cases  UART interface support for 7 or 8 data bits, 1 or 2 stop bits and odd / even / mark / space / no parity.  Fully assisted hardware or X-On / X-Off software handshaking.  Data transfer rates from 300 baud to 250 kilo-baud at RS232 voltage levels.  512 byte receive buffer and 512 byte transmit buffer utilising buffer smoothing technology to allow for high data throughput  Adjustable receive buffer timeout.  ESD protection on RS232 I/Os exceeding ±15kV IEC1000-4-2 Air Gap Discharge, ±15kV for Human Body Mode (HBM) and ±8kV IEC1000-4-2 Contact Discharge.  ESD protection on USB lines exceeding ±2kV for Human Body Mode (HBM), ±200V for Machine Mode (MM) and ±500V for Charged Device Mode (CDM).  Integrated MTP-ROM for storing USB VID, PID, serial number and product description strings.  Low operating and USB suspend current.  Low USB bandwidth consumption.  USB 2.0 Full Speed compatible.  -40°C to 85°C extended operating temperature range.  Latch-up Free Copyright © Future Technology Devices International Limited Chipi-X Cable Datasheet Version 1.1 Document Reference No.: FT_000634 Clearance No.: FTDI# 288 Table of Contents 1 Introduction ................................................................................... 1 1.1 Features ........................................................................................................ 1 2 Driver Support ................................................................................ 3 3 Ordering Information ..................................................................... 3 4 Functional Description .................................................................... 4 5 4.1 Block Diagram ............................................................................................... 4 4.2 Electrical Details ........................................................................................... 4 Chipi-X Signals and Pin Out ............................................................ 5 5.1 RS232 Signals ............................................................................................... 5 5.2 USB Signals ................................................................................................... 5 6 Module Dimensions ........................................................................ 6 7 Chipi-X Circuit Schematic ............................................................... 7 8 Internal MTP ROM Configuration .................................................... 8 9 Contact Information ....................................................................... 9 Appendix A – List of Tables and Figures ................................................................ 10 Appendix B – Revision History .............................................................................. 11 2 Copyright © Future Technology Devices International Limited Chipi-X Cable Datasheet Version 1.1 Document Reference No.: FT_000634 2 Clearance No.: FTDI# 288 Driver Support Royalty-Free VIRTUAL COM PORT (VCP) DRIVERS for: Royalty-Free D2XX Direct Drivers (USB Drivers + DLL S/W Interface):  Windows 10 32,64-bit  Windows 10 32,64-bit  Windows 8/8.1 32, 64-bit  Windows 8/8.1 32, 64-bit  Windows 7 32,64-bit  Windows 7 32,64-bit  Windows Vista  Windows Vista  Windows XP 32,64-bit  Windows XP 32,64-bit  Windows XP Embedded  Windows XP Embedded  Windows CE.NET 4.2 , 5.0 and 6.0  Windows CE.NET 4.2, 5.0 and 6.0  MAC OS OS-X  MAC OS OS-X  Linux 2.6.32 or later Android  Linux 2.6.32 or later Android The drivers listed above are all available to download for free from www.ftdichip.com.

The default values programmed into the internal MTP ROM in the FT231XS used on the Chipi-X are shown in Table 8.1. Parameter Value Notes USB Vendor ID (VID) 0403h FTDI default VID (hex) USB Product UD (PID) 6015h FTDI default PID (hex) Serial Number Enabled? Yes Serial Number See Note A unique serial number is generated and programmed into the MTP ROM during final test of the UM232R module. Pull down I/O Pins in USB Suspend Disabled Enabling this option will make the device pull down on the UART interface lines when the power is shut off (PWREN# is high). Manufacturer Name FTDI Product Description Chipi-X Max Bus Power Current Power Source 90mA Bus Powered Device Type FT231X USB Version 0200 Returns USB 2.0 device description to the host. Note: The device is a USB 2.0 Full Speed device (12Mb/s) as opposed to a USB 2.0 High Speed device (480Mb/s). Remote Wake Up Enabled Taking RI# low will wake up the USB host controller from suspend. High Current I/Os Disabled Enables the high drive level on the UART and CBUS I/O pins. Load VCP Driver Enabled Makes the device load the VCP driver interface for the device. CBUS0 Tristate CBUS1 Tristate CBUS2 Tristate CBUS3 SLEEP# Invert UART Disabled Signal on this pin becomes TXD# if enable. Table 8.1 – Default Internal MTP ROM Configuration The internal MTP ROM in the FT231X can be programmed over USB using the utility program FT_PROG. FT_PROG can be downloaded from www.ftdichip.com. 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.
