Name

Description
22
TXE#
I/O
When high, do not write data into the FIFO. When low, data can be written into the
FIFO by strobing WR high, then low. During reset this signal pin is tri-state, but pulled
up to VCCIO via an internal 200kΩ resistor. See Section 4.4 for timing diagram.
23
RXF#
I/O
When high, do not read data from the FIFO. When low, there is data available in the
FIFO which can be read by strobing RD# low, then high again. During reset this signal
pin is tri-state, but pulled up to VCCIO via an internal 200kΩ resistor. See Section 4.4
for timing diagram.
If the Remote Wakeup option is enabled in the internal EEPROM, during USB suspend
mode (PWREN# = 1) RXF# becomes an input which can be used to wake up the USB
host from suspend mode. Strobing the pin low will cause the device to request a
resume on the USB bus.
Table 4.1 Module Pin-Out Description
* When used in Suspend, these pins are pulled to VCCIO via internal 200kΩ resistors. These pins can be
programmed to gently pull low during USB suspend ( PWREN# = “1” ) by setting an option in the internal
EEPROM.

Description
1
3V3
Output
3.3V output from integrated LDO regulator. This pin is decoupled to ground on the
module PCB with a 100nF capacitor. The prime purpose of this pin is to provide the
internal 3.3V supply to the USB transceiver cell and the internal 1.5kΩ pull up resistor
on USBDP. Up to 50mA can be drawn from this pin to power external logic if required.
This pin can also be used to supply the FT245RL‟s VCCIO pin by connecting this pin to
pin 4 (VIO), or by connecting together pins 1 and 2 on jumper J1.
2
VIO
PWR
+1.8V to +5.25V supply to the FIFO Interface and control pins (1...3, 5, 6, 9...14, 22,
23). In USB bus powered designs connect to 3V3 to drive out at 3.3V levels (connect
jumper J1 pins 1 and 2 together), or connect to VCC to drive out at 5V CMOS level
(connect jumper J1 pins 2 and 3 together). This pin can also be supplied with an
external 1.8V - 2.8V supply in order to drive out at lower levels. It should be noted that
in this case this supply should originate from the same source as the supply to Vcc.
This means that in bus powered designs a regulator which is supplied by the 5V on the
USB bus should be used.
3
VCC
PWR
VCC Output. This will be 5V from the USB bus if pins 1 and 2 on jumper J2 are
connected. Alternatively, if the module is in a self powered configuration, the supply to
the VCC module pins (15 and 21) will be brought out to this jumper pin.
Connect this jumper J1 pin 2 in order to supply the device IO pins from the supply to
VCCIO.

USB
PWR
5V Power output USB port. For a low power USB bus powered design, up to 100mA can
be sourced from the 5V supply on the USB bus. A maximum of 500mA can be sourced
from the USB bus in a high power USB bus powered design with the use of an external
power switch (See Section 7.3).
2
VCC
PWR or
Output
Board supply input. Connect to jumper J2 pin 1 in order to supply the board from the
USB bus.
This pin is internally connected to the VCC DIP pins. Remove the jumper connector in a
self powered design.
