Evaluation & Legacy Serial Modules

Embedded Systems Solutions (an ESA Group Company) is an authorised distributor for Future Technology Devices International Limited (FTDI) FTDI in India. FTDI’s USB 2.0 ICs, Evaluation and Legacy Serial Modules make Hi-Speed USB 2.0 development easy. For applications that need to provide USB 2.0 Hi-Speed host connectivity to legacy serial interfaces such as RS232 (EIA-232), RS422 (EIA-422) or RS485 (EIA-485), FTDI provides a complete range of interface modules. The USB-Com-Plus family of modules provide single, dual or quad port options. The dual and quad port modules utilise the FT2232H and FT4232H devices. The FTDI USB-Com-Plus family of modules offers one of the industry’s highest data transfer rates with speeds up to 10 Mb/s on the USB 2.0 Hi-Speed multi-port modules and 3 Mb/s on the USB 2.0 Full Speed single port modules. The multi-port modules feature a USB 2.0 Hi-Speed (480 Mb/s) interface and include Tx/Rx data buffers up to 4k bytes, plus low data latency times. The single port module offers 5 V switched USB power over RS232, ideal for POS applications. The USB-COM-PLUS modules are powered from the USB port, saving the need for an additional external power adapter and associated costs. PCB mounted LEDs provide an indication of USB enumeration, RxD and TxD signals. The complete USB protocol is also handled by the modules; this means little or no changes are required to existing software applications.
