MCP2200 Application Note

●The MCP2200-I/SO is a USB to UART serial converter which enables USB connectivity in applications that have a UART interface. The device reduces external components by integrating the USB termination resistors. The MCP2200-I/SO also has 256 bytes of integrated user EEPROM.

● Supports full-speed USB (12 Mb/s)

● Implements USB protocol composite device:

● 128 byte buffer to handle data throughput at any UART baud rate

● Fully configurable VID and PID assignments, and string descriptors

● Bus powered or self-powered

● USB Driver and Software Support

● Configuration utility for initial configuration Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter (UART)

● Responds to SET LINE CODING commands to dynamically change baud rates

● Supports baud rates: 300-1000k

● Hardware flow control

● UART signal polarity option

● Eight general purpose I/O pins

● 256 bytes of user EEPROM

● USB activity LED outputs (TxLED and RxLED)

● SSPND output pin

● USBCFG output pin (indicates when the enumeration is completed)
