6. Internal EEPROM Configuration
Following a power-on reset or a USB reset the FT232R will scan its internal EEPROM and read the USB configuration
descriptors stored there. The default values programmed into the internal EEPROM in the FT232RQ used in the TTL-
232R are shown in Table 2.

A unique serial number is generated and programmed into the EEPROM
during final test of the TTL-232R module.
Pull Down I/O Pins in USB Suspend

Enabling this option will make the device pull down on the UART interface
lines when the power is shut off (PWREN# is high)

Signal on this pin becomes RTS if enabled.
Invert CTS#
Signal on this pin becomes CTS if enabled.
The internal EEPROM in the FT232R can be reprogrammed over USB using the utility program MPROG. MPROG
can be downloaded from the FTDI website. Version 2.8a or later is required for the FT232R chip. Users who do not
have their own USB Vendor ID but who would like to use a unique Product ID in their design can apply to FTDI for a
free block of unique PIDs. Contact FTDI support for this service.
