FT220X
(USB 4-BIT SPI/FT1248 IC)
The FT220X is a USB to FTDI’s 
proprietary FT1248 interface and the
following advanced features:
 FT1248 serial parallel interface in 1, 2 or 4 bit 
wide mode.
 Similar to an SPI slave in 1 bit mode

 Entire USB protocol handled on the chip. No
USB specific firmware programming required.
 Fully integrated 2048 byte multi-time- 
programmable (MTP) memory, storing device 
descriptors and CBUS I/O configuration.
 Fully integrated clock generation with no
external crystal required plus optional clock 
output selection enabling a glue-less interface
to external MCU or FPGA.

 Data transfer rates to 500kByte/s.

 512 byte receive buffer and 512 byte transmit
buffer utilising buffer smoothing technology to
allow for high data throughput.

 FTDI’s royalty-free Virtual Com Port (VCP) and 
Direct (D2XX) drivers eliminate the 
requirement for USB driver development in
most cases.

 Configurable CBUS I/O pin.




USB Battery Charger Detection. Allows for USB
peripheral devices to detect the presence of a
higher power source to enable improved
charging.
