8.2 Using the External Oscillator
The FT245R defaults to operating using its own internal oscillator. This requires that the device is
powered with VCC (min)=+4.0V. This supply voltage can be taken from the USB VBUS. Applications
which require using an external oscillator, VCC= +3.3V must do so in the following order:
The FT245R will fail to operate when the internal oscillator has been disabled, but no external oscillator
has been connected.
1. When device powered for the very first time, it must have VCC > +4.0V. This supply is available
2. The EEPROM must then be programmed to enable external oscillator. This EEPROM modification
3. The FT245R can then be powered from VCC=+3.3V and an external oscillator. This can be done
from the USB VBUS supply = +5.0V.
cannot be done using the FTDI programming utility, MPROG
only be re-configured from a custom application. Please refer to the following applications note on
