Overview
--------

PyFtdi aims at providing a user-space driver for modern FTDI devices,
implemented in pure Python language.

Modern FTDI devices include:

* UART-only bridges

  * FT232R (single port, 3Mbps)
  * FT230X/FT231X/FT234X/ (single port, 3Mbps)

* UART and multi-serial protocols (SPI, |I2C|, JTAG) bridges

  * FT2232C/D (dual port, clock up to 6 MHz)
  * FT232H (single port, clock up to 30 MHz)
  * FT2232H (dual port, clock up to 30 MHz)
  * FT4232H (quad port, clock up to 30 MHz)

Features
--------

PyFtdi currently supports the following features:

* UART/Serial USB converter, up to 12Mbps (depending on the FTDI device
  capability)
* Bitbang/GPIO legacy support, 8 pins per port
* SPI master, with simultanous GPIO support, up to 12 pins per port,
  with support for non-byte sized transfer
* |I2C| master, with simultanous GPIO support, up to 14 pins per port
* Basic JTAG master capabilities
* EEPROM support (not all settings can be modified for now)
* Experimental CBUS support on selected devices, 4 pins per port

Supported host OSes
-------------------

* macOS
* Linux
* FreeBSD
* Windows, although not officially supported
