EEPROM. A high-power bus powered device must use this descriptor in the internal EEPROM to inform the
system of its power requirements.
v) For 3.3V power controlled circuits the VCCIO pin must not be powered down with the external circuitry (the
PWREN# signal gets its VCC supply from VCCIO). Either connect the power switch between the output of the
3.3V regulator and the external 3.3V logic or power VCCIO from the 3V3OUT pin of the FT232R.
6.4 LED Interface
The FT232RL’s CBUS0 and CBUS1 pins on the EVAL232R are con?gured to drive LED’s.
CBUS0 is used to indicate reception of data (RXLED#) and CBUS1 is used to indicate transmission of data (TXLED#).
When data is being transmitted or received the respective CBUS pin will drive from tri-state to low in order to provide
indication on the LEDs of data transfer. A digital one-shot time is used so that even a small percentage of data transfer
is visible to the end user.
The FT232R CBUS pins have 3 con?gurable options for driving an LED - these are TXLED#, RXLED#, and
TX&RXLED#.
