RPI-HUB-MODULE

RPI-HUB-MODULE is an USB HUB and USB to dual channel multi interface converter module designed for Raspberry Pi. FT2232H based RPi HUB module is a USB to UART/245FIFO/SPI/I2C/JTAG/GPIO interface expansion module targeted at connecting to Raspberry-Pi computer to expand the number of interfaces. However, it is not limited to this application. It can also be used as a hub device or an FT2232H evaluation module. It has a USB 2.0 Hi-Speed hub chip which supports up to 3 external downstream USB ports: 2 via a dual USB connector and 1 via DIL connector pins. Additionally, by utilising FT2232H USB Hi-Speed dual-port bridge chip which handles all USB signalling and protocols, module can easily support up to two flexible interfacing ports. It is ideal for development purposes to quickly prove functionality of adding USB to a target design. This module utilises GL850G USB 2.0 hub controller which provides a low-cost and widely used USB 2.0 hub solution, to provide up to 4 downstream USB ports.
