Multipurpose
Figure 1 - UMFT232HPEV-S Sink Module
The module has 47mm x 32mm dimensions, with single Type-C power delivery port incorporated
into it. The port serves only as a sink port. EEPROM is not mounted in this module, As such the
port supports the following configuration:
5V power delivery object (PDO) profiles - as defined in revision 3.0 of the USB Power
Delivery specification when connected to PD chargers.
Offers USB data transmission with default USB power capability when connected to non PD
PC host.
GPIO pins are used to provide indication via LEDs whether module is connected to PD charger or
USB2.0 host as well as to control the load switch.
1.1 Features
1. Single Type-C™ USB PD sink only ports that support USB data communication which is
USB 2.0 compliant
2. Supports bus-powered operation.
3. LED indicators for PWREN#, SUSPEND# signals (optional), System Power, 5V 3A profile
and USB2.0 Vbus
4. Test points for core and CC voltages.

2 Typical Applications
Rapid USB integration into existing electronic systems
Prototyping platform for USB interface on new system
USB Bridge with Type-C/PD3.0 (chargers and devices).
Up to 15W power application delivery via USB PD and/or Type-C port.
USB to multi-port JTAG, SPI and I2C interfaces
USB to multi-port asynchronous serial interfaces
2.1 Driver Support
The FT232HP requires USB drivers (listed below), available free from https://www.ftdichip.com,
which are used to make the FT232HP appear as a virtual COM port (VCP). This allows the user to
communicate with the USB interface via a standard PC serial emulation port (for example TTY).
Another FTDI USB driver, the D2XX driver, can also be used with application software to directly
access the FT232HP through a DLL.

3.2 Power
The UMFT232HPEV-S Sink Module board provides power source that is 3.46V for FT232HPQ and
most other circuits on the board. The reason why 3.46V is needed for FT232HPQ is due to the
addition of schottky diode between VCC_PD/PD1_Vconn and VCC33 to prevent CC leakage during
initial attach when the chip is not yet fully powered up.
Refer to section 4.15.5 of FT232HPQ datasheet for more detail. The power source is derived from
bus power via PD1 port.
3.3 GPIO
The GPIOs from FT232HPQ are used to control the load switch as well as setting the PD power
profile used during PD negotiation between the charger and the charging device.
3.4 Connectors
Connectors CN3, CN4 and for functional interface are detailed in Table 1 and Table 2.

4 Power Delivery Functional Configuration
4.1 Sink
Sink is feature where PD can be configured as sink mode when attached to a PD charger or other
PD devices to provide power to the modules connected to the board. Figure 9 and Figure 10 shows
two user scenarios in UMFT232HPEV-S.

Sink Configuration
Figure 9 shows the first scenario where “Laptop/Charger USB A” connects to “Module USB C”. In
this case, the decoding logic will drive USB2_VBus LED on based on the state of the GPIO2 and
GPIO3 signifying that Vbus is at default 500mA. Also load switch is turned on by the assertion of
GPIO2 to route the 5V to the CN4 pin12, 13 where it can be used to power the external module.
Figure 10 shows the 2nd scenario where “Laptop/Charger USB C” connects to “Module USB C”. In
this case, the decoding logic will drive PD_VBus LED on based on the state of GPIO2 and GPIO3
signifying Vbus is at 5V, 3A. Also load switch is turned on by the assertion of GPIO2 to route the
5V to the CN4 pin12, 13 where it can be used to power the external module
Table 3 shows the state of the GPIOs and LEDs based on the above two scenario.
