4.5 FT245 Style Asynchronous FIFO Interface Mode Description
The FT232H can be configured as an asynchronous FIFO interface. This mode is similar to the
synchronous FIFO interface with the exception that the data is written to or read from the FIFO on the
falling edge of the WR# or RD# signals.
This mode does not provide a CLKOUT signal and it does not expect an OE# input signal. The following
diagrams illustrate the asynchronous FIFO mode timing.
