The latest PyFtdi online documentation is always available from

here.

Beware the online version may be more recent than the PyPI hosted version, as

intermediate development versions are not published to

PyPi.

PyFtdi documentation can be locally build with Sphinx, see the installation

instructions.

Overview

---

PyFtdi aims at providing a user-space driver for popular FTDI devices,

implemented in pure Python language.

Supported FTDI devices include:

• UART and GPIO bridges

  • FT232R (single port, 3Mbps)

  • FT230X/FT231X/FT234X (single port, 3Mbps)

• UART and multi-serial protocols (SPI, I²C, JTAG) bridges

  • FT2232C/D (dual port, clock up to 6 MHz)

  • FT232H (single port, clock up to 30 MHz)

  • FT2232H (dual port, clock up to 30 MHz)

  • FT4232H (quad port, clock up to 30 MHz)

Features

---

PyFtdi currently supports the following features:

• UART/Serial USB converter, up to 12Mbps (depending on the FTDI device

  capability)

• GPIO/Bitbang support, with 8-bit asynchronous, 8-bit synchronous and

  8-/16-bit MPSSE variants

• SPI master, with simultanous GPIO support, up to 12 pins per port,

  with support for non-byte sized transfer

• I²C master, with simultanous GPIO support, up to 14 pins per port

• Basic JTAG master capabilities

• EEPROM support (some parameters cannot yet be modified, only retrieved)

• Experimental CBUS support on selected devices, 4 pins per port

Supported host OSes
