The MCP2200-I/SS is an USB 2.0 to UART Protocol Converter with general purpose input/output (GPIO) pins. The serial converter enables USB connectivity in application that have an UART interface. The device reduces external components by integrating the USB termination resistors. It also has 256-bytes of integrated user EEPROM. It has eight general purpose input/output pins. Four of the pins have alternate functions to indicate USB and communication status.
