Description
The MIKROE-5065 is USB to I2C 2 Click, a compact add-on board that contains a general-purpose USB to I2C serial interface. This board features the FT201X, a full-speed USB to I2C protocol slave IC from FTDI. The FT201X converts USB2.0 full-speed to an I2C serial interface capable of operating up to 3.4MBit/s, with low power consumption (typical 8mA). The entire USB protocol is handled on the chip itself, where no USB-specific firmware programming is required. It also has a fully-integrated 2048 byte Multi-Time-Programmable (MTP) memory for storing device descriptors and CBUS I/O user-desirable configuration. This Click board includes the complete FT-X series feature set and enables USB to be added into a system design quickly and easily over an I2C interface.
USB to I2C 2 Click Board Description
This Click board communicates with MCU using the standard I2C 2-Wire interface to read data and configure settings, supporting Standard Mode operation with a clock frequency of 100kHz and Fast Mode up to 400kHz. Since the FT201X for operation requires a 5V only, this Click board also features the PCA9306 voltage-level translator from Texas Instruments. The I2C interface bus lines are routed to the dual bidirectional voltage-level translator, allowing this Click board to work with both 3.3V and 5V MCUs properly.
