What boards using the FT2232HL are built for
FT2232HL: common questions
Where can I find a FT2232HL reference design?
Each of the 25 boards on this page is a real design using the FT2232HL. Open one to see how it is wired up, with the full BOM, a render of the layout and links to its KiCad files.
What parts are used alongside the FT2232HL?
The 93LC56B, ICE40HX4K-TQ144, 93LC56BT-I/OT, LD1117S33TR and USBLC6-2SC6 appear in the most repositories here.
Which microcontrollers do boards using the FT2232HL use?
Most are built on FPGA (9), ESP32 (3) and Nordic nRF (1).
How big is a typical board using the FT2232HL?
The median is 100 × 70 mm, and 40% are two-layer designs.
What is the most popular open source board using the FT2232HL?
By GitHub stars, Radioberry juice by pa3gsb, with 675 stars.
Can I simulate one of these boards using the FT2232HL before building it?
Yes. HardLabs turns a board's netlist and BOM into a working simulation, so you can boot and test firmware against it with no hardware on your desk.
