FT232RL

Brand: FTDI

Check Stock

FT232RL is a USB 2.0 Full-Speed (12 Mbps) to serial UART bridge IC from FTDI featuring fully integrated clock generation (no external crystal required), 1024-bit internal EEPROM for configuration storage, and built-in USB termination resistors. It supports data rates from 300 baud to 3 Mbaud (TTL/RS485 levels), with hardware and software handshaking, CBUS configurable I/O pins, and a unique FTDIChip-ID security feature. The device includes a 256-byte receive buffer and 128-byte transmit buffer, operates from a single 3.3 V to 5.25 V supply, and is housed in a compact 28-pin SSOP rated from -40 °C to +85 °C.

Why Buyers Source FT232RL

FT232RL is best treated as a sourcing-specific line item, not a generic replacement, because interface standard, isolation/protection level, package and operating grade can affect approval. For overseas buyers, the important confirmation points are stock reality, traceability, packing condition and shipment window. Useful for USB Bridge IC designs where exact ordering code, package and life-cycle status are qualified.

LimChip can confirm current price, quantity, date code, batch condition and shipping schedule by RFQ.
