FT260: HID Class USB Device Bridges to I2C and UART Interfaces
Published: Feb 25,2016556 Read
The FT260 offers a new era in easy bridging of different protocols to USB. Operating as a HID (Human Interface Device) class USB device, this is the first FTDI solution that does not require specifc vendor class drivers to be loaded to enable operation, simplifying the user experience even more than before.

FTDI Chip announced the full production release and availability of its 2nd generation Embedded Video Engine (EVE) controller, the FT81x family...
The device offers two interfaces - UART and I2C master, with extensions to the I2C engine to support a recently defined HID over I2C protocol from Microsoft.
Leveraging the advantages of using a standard USB HID class driver which will be already installed in most OS (our other devices are Vendor Class), the FT260 provides an ideal, fast to implement, bridge between USB and either UART or I2C peripherals.
The small 28 pin WQFN package provides the perfect bridge to your sensor or human interface peripheral application. The I2C mode of operation will also support the HID over I2C protocol defined by Microsoft with Windows 8.
Features:
－ Full speed HID class USB device
－ One UART interface capable of speeds upto 12MBaud
－ One I2C interface supporting all standard speeds
－ Supports new HID over I2C protocol
－ 28 pin QFN package
