FT4232HL-TRAY

Introduction

The FT4232HL-TRAY is an Application Field and Working Principle designed for Interface-Controllers. It is a development board designed to easily interface various platforms, including embedded systems and custom-designed circuits.

FT4232HL-TRAY Overview

The FT4232HL-TRAY is an USB 2.0 UART/FIFO bridge controller that includes four independent serial ports, each with the ability to operate as either an input or output port, enabling asynchronous communication with adjustable baudrate. Each port features communication speeds up to 12Mbits/s and can operate with major standards such as RS-232, RS-485 and the RS-422, ensuring compatibility with many serial devices. The board has a total of 4 channels with its two high-speed UARTs and two slower UARTs with configurable data rates up to 5Mbits/s. This makes it suitable for a range of applications.

The FT4232HL-TRAY features of the following common features:

• USB 2.0 compatible
• Four Hi-Speed UART up to 12Mbits/s
• Two Low-Speed UART up to 5Mbits/s
• Supports full-duplex and half-duplex data transmission
• High noise immunity and ESD protection
• Low power consumption
• External voltage regulator for better control system
• Easy board layout and configuration
• Compatible with major communication standards

Application of FT4232HL-TRAY

The FT4232HL-TRAY is suitable for a broad range of interface applications. It is an ideal solution for industrial automation, medical equipment, automotive and telecommunications. It is also suitable for use in similar industrial control and communication applications. The FT4232HL-TRAY can be used in applications such as adding extra serial ports to a PC, providing extra USB 2.0 and serial ports for embedded applications, and providing local access to USB 2.0 peripherals.

Working Principle of FT4232HL-TRAY

The FT4232HL-TRAY works in a similar way to other USB to serial converters, using a set of registers, a memory map and specific logic to communicate between the USB and the serial ports. The FT4232HL-TRAY sends and receives data from the USB host in order to control the serial ports, which are then connected to the application device. When data is sent from the application device to the FT4232HL-TRAY, it is processed and sent to the USB host according to the protocol. The FT4232HL-TRAY can also receive data from the USB host and send it to the serial port, converting it to the appropriate format for the application device to process.

Conclusion

The FT4232HL-TRAY is a development board designed to easily interface various platforms and embedded systems. It is an ideal solution for a wide range of interface applications, including industrial automation, medical equipment, automotive, and telecommunications. The FT4232HL-TRAY can send and receive data from a USB 2.0 host in order to control the serial ports, which can then be connected to other devices. It is suitable for adding extra serial ports to PCs, and providing extra USB 2.0 and serial ports for embedded applications.
