DLP Design High Speed USB Microcontroller Module

DLP Design High Speed USB Microcontroller Module combines the same USB interface used in the DLP-2232H and the DLP-1232H modules with a Texas Instruments microcontroller to form a rapid development tool. The DLP Design High Speed USB Microcontroller Module provides a cost-effective, microcontroller-based method of interfacing an electronic peripheral to a host computer via USB. The MSP430F2618 microcontroller is preprogrammed with basic functionality for accessing the port pins and can be reprogrammed with user firmware via a 10-pin header using a device programmer (sold separately). No in-depth knowledge of USB technology is required as all USB protocols are handled automatically by the on-board FT2232H and its support circuitry.

Features

Send/receive data over a high-speed USB 2.0 interface to a host computer
32 digital I/O lines (8 can be configured as A/D inputs; 2 can be configured as D/A outputs) plus the 8-bit data bus available for interfacing to user electronics
Texas Instruments 16-bit RISC architecture processor with 116K bytes FLASH ROM, 8K bytes RAM, a multi-channel, 12-bit A/D converter, and dual, 12-bit D/A converters
"Token I/O" code preprogrammed into the MSP430F2618's FLASH memory for basic port pin input/output capability including access to the A/D and D/A converters
The FLASH memory can be easily erased and reprogrammed utilizing a user-supplied compatible programmer
Royalty-free device drivers eliminate the need for USB driver development in most cases
USB bulk or isocronous data-transfer modes
Required 5V supply can be taken directly from the USB port or supplied by user electronics
USB 1.1 and USB 2.0 compatible
USB VID, PID, serial number and product-description strings stored in an on-board EEPROM memory
