FTDI FT245R USB FIFO I.C. Incorporating FTDIChip-ID Security Dongle
Update: 28 September, 2023
The FT245R is a USB FIFO interface chip developed by Future Technology Devices International Ltd., and it incorporates the FTDIChip-ID™ security dongle feature. The chip integrates the external EEPROM, clock circuit, and USB resistors, simplifying USB to parallel FIFO interface designs. It supports asynchronous and synchronous bit bang interface modes. Compared with its predecessors, the FT245R adds a new function, making it a “2-in-1” chip for certain application areas. A unique number (the FTDIChip-ID™) is burnt into the device during manufacture and can be read over USB, serving as a security dongle to protect customer application software from being copied. The FT245R is available in Pb-free (RoHS compliant) compact 28-Lead SSOP and QFN-32 packages.
