FT245RQ
# Single chip USB to parallel FIFO bidirectional data transfer interface. # Entire USB protocol handled on the chip - No USB-specific firmware programming required. # Simple interface to MCU / PLD / FPGA logic with simple 4-wire handshake interface. # Data transfer rate to 1 Megabyte / second - D2XX Direct Drivers. # Data transfer rate to 300 kilobyte / second - VCP Drivers. # FTDI?s royalty-free VCP and D2XX drivers eliminate the requirement for USB driver development in most cases. # New USB FTDIChip-ID? feature. # FIFO receive and transmit buffers for high data throughput. # 256 Byte receive buffer and 128 Byte transmit buffer utilising buffer smoothing technology to allow for high data throughput. # Adjustable receive buffer timeout. # Synchronous and asynchronous bit bang mode interface options with RD# and WR# strobes allow the data bus to be used as a general purpose I/O port. # Integrated 1024 Byte internal EEPROM for storing USB VID, PID, serial number and product description strings.
