UMFTPD3A [FTDI]

The UMFTPD3A Universal Programmer Module is used to provide an external programming voltage (Vpp) that covers 1.5 to 6.5V to program FTDI development modules and ICs with internal OTP memory or eFUSE (electrical poly-fuse).
The embedded OTP memory or eFUSE in the FTDI chips is used to store USB Vendor ID (VID), Product ID (PID), device serial number, product description string and chip configuration information. Users can store this vendor specific information in the OTP or eFUSE and save the cost of an external EEPROM from the BOM.
The UMFTPD3A assists the user in programming the OTP memory or eFUSE directly through a USB host controller with FTDI’s programming software tool, FT_Prog.
