FT2233HPQ-REEL

Controllers Overview

The FT2233HPQ-REEL is a high-speed USB bridge integrated circuit featuring an integrated Type-C and Power Delivery 3.0 controller. It provides two independent channels compatible with the FT2232H, supporting USB 2.0 High Speed (480 Mbits/Second) and Full Speed (12 Mbits/Second). The device includes a PD policy engine utilizing a 32-bit RISC controller with 8kB data RAM and 48kB code ROM. It operates on a +3.3V single supply voltage range with +3.3V I/O interfacing. The component is housed in a QFN-76 package and supports an industrial operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C.

Controllers Feature Summary

• Integrates a Type-C/PD 3.0 controller for power negotiation, supporting sink or source current capabilities.
• Provides dual independent serial channels configurable as UART, FIFO, MPSSE, or Bit-Bang interfaces.
• Handles the entire USB protocol internally without requiring specific firmware programming.
• Includes an internal +1.2V LDO regulator for VCORE and an on-chip clock multiplier PLL.

Controllers Applications

• USB bridges with Type-C/Power Delivery for chargers and devices
• High-power applications via USB PD and/or Type-C ports
• Single chip USB to two channels UART (RS232, RS422, or RS485)
• Interfacing MCU, PLD, or FPGA based designs to USB

Controllers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's documentation to confirm package type and reel specifications. Ensure compatibility with required driver software versions for Virtual COM Port or Direct access. Confirm that external configuration EEPROM requirements are met for custom VID/PID settings.

Controllers Selection Notes

Select this component when dual-channel high-speed USB connectivity is required alongside integrated Type-C power delivery management. It is suitable for designs needing flexible interface configurations such as JTAG, SPI, or I2C without external protocol controllers. Consider the QFN-76 footprint constraints during PCB layout planning.

Controllers Part Context

This part belongs to the FT2233HP series, which extends the functionality of the legacy FT2232H by adding native Type-C and PD 3.0 support. It maintains pin and functional compatibility with standard USB bridge applications while enabling advanced power negotiation features directly on the chip.

Controllers Replacement Considerations

FT2232HL-REEL serves as a functional substitute for the USB bridge portion but lacks the integrated Type-C/PD controller found in the FT2233HP series.
