3.5 Pin Configurations
The following section describes the function of the pins when the device is configured in different modes
of operation.
3.5.1 FT232H pins used in an UART interface
The FT232H can be configured as a UART interface. When configured in this mode, the pins used and the
descriptions of the signals are shown in Table 3.6

RI# = Ring Indicator Control Input. When the Remote Wake up
option is enabled in the EEPROM, taking RI# low can be used to
resume the PC USB Host controller from suspend.

RXLED = Receive signalling output. Pulses low when receiving data
(RXD) from the external device (UART Interface). This should be
connected to an LED.
