The FTDI FT600Q‑FT601Q datasheet details specifications, pin‑out, and application information for the USB 3.0‑to‑FIFO bridge ICs.
The FT600 and FT601 are USB 3.0 to FIFO bridge chips that support SuperSpeed (5 Gbps), High‑Speed (480 Mbps) and Full‑Speed (12 Mbps) transfers. They provide up to eight configurable endpoints, multi‑voltage I/O (1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V), a built‑in 16 kB FIFO buffer, and an internal 1.0 V LDO. Typical applications include upgrading legacy peripherals, USB 3.0 data acquisition, digital video cameras, and industrial imaging devices.
The document includes driver support (royalty‑free D3XX drivers for Windows, macOS, Linux), ordering information for QFN‑56 (16‑bit) and QFN‑76 (32‑bit) packages, USB compliance details, block diagrams, pin‑out tables, functional descriptions, device ratings, power‑configuration options, package dimensions, and contact information for FTDI worldwide.
