FT9xx Development Modules
Based upon Bridgetek’s FT32 high performance, 32 bit RISC core, the FT9xx series provides a plethora of connectivity options, making it the ideal choice for advanced technology bridging solutions. By executing instructions from shadow RAM, rather than flash memory, the FT9xx can operate at true Zero Wait States (0WS) up to 100MHz with 310 DMIPS performance.
In addition, Bridgetek provides a range of modules designed to assist with design and development with the series.
It’s recommended to purchase the UMFTPD2A with the FT9xx Development modules during the evaluation and development phase as shown in the diagram below.
The UMFTPD2A can be omitted during the production or in-field updates phases as the IC can be programmed via USB DFU using the USB Device Port directly on the FT9xx.
