Debugger 1 Module

Datasheet

FTPD-1 is a module used for programming and debugging.

1.

Introduction

The FTPD-1 is a module with a FT230X USB to

UART converter and a dual buffer. The FTPD-1

utilises these components to generate a single

line half-duplex UART signal with no handshake

which can be used to program several of FTDI’s

MCU devices, predominantly FT51A.

This module also provides a switched 5V power

supply to the target device and is configured

such that it does not infringe USB compliance

regulations for supplying bus power.

FTPD-1’s board dimensions are the same as a

credit card; however the fitted components give

it additional height. The module is supplied with

a berg connector ribbon cable; however it is

compatible for operation with pogo pin cables.

All components used, including the FT230X are

Pb-free (RoHS compliant).

Features

The FTPD-1 has the following features:

 Full-Speed USB to UART converter

 Single half-duplex UART data pin input/output

 Two dedicated GPIOs to control Reset# and Prog#

outputs

 TXDEN line to control the direction of the half-

duplex UART data

 PWREN# line to control the power supply

 2X3 way 2.54mm pitch shrouded male header

 150mm ribbon cable with Female to Female

2.54mm pitch 2x3 way connectors

 Protected by resettable fuse with 0.5A hold current

and schottky diode on the output power line.

 Pogo pin compatible

 Power output available, indication LED
