Future Technology Devices International, FTDI, exhibited the multiport variants of its USB COM Plus range of communication modules at ESC UK, Farnborough.
 The modules are available as RS232 (EIA-232), RS422 (EIA-422) or RS485 (EIA-485) interfaces to a USB host. They are available as single or dual port modules, while the USB COM232 PLUS4 provides a quad port option. Both dual and quad port modules utilise FTDI's FT2232H and FT4232H ics.
According to FTDI, the range offers one of the industry's highest data transfer rates with speeds up to 10Mb/s on the USB 2.0 Hi-Speed multiport modules and up to 3Mb/s on the USB 2.0 Full Speed single port modules. The multiport modules feature a USB 2.0 Hi Speed (480Mb/s) interface and include deep Tx/Rx data buffers.
Royalty free drivers are available for all popular operating system platforms. These include Microsoft Windows WHQL – certified drivers which enable plug and play installation.
Aimed for use with a range of industrial, factory automation, POS and medical applications, the range of modules can operate from -40 to 85°C and are CE/FCC approved.
