Microchip Tech · USB Converters · TSSOP-14

MCP2221A-I from Microchip Tech, in a TSSOP-14. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 VDD power_in Positive supply pin with an operating voltage of 3.0 to 5.5V, and its level sets the logic-high voltage on the GPIO and UART TX/RX pins.
2 GP0 bidirectional General purpose I/O pin that can alternatively be configured as the SSPND output or the LED_URX UART receive activity output (factory default).
3 GP1 bidirectional General purpose I/O pin that can alternatively be configured as the CLKR clock output, ADC1 analog input, LED_UTX UART transmit activity output (factory default), or IOC external interrupt input.
4 RST input Reset input with an internal pull-up.
5 URX input UART RX pin, serving as the UART data input.
6 UTX output UART TX pin, serving as the UART data output.
7 GP2 bidirectional General purpose I/O pin that can alternatively be configured as the USBCFG output (factory default), ADC2 analog input, or DAC1 analog output.
8 GP3 bidirectional General purpose I/O pin that can alternatively be configured as the LED_I2C output, ADC3 analog input, or DAC2 analog output.
9 SDA bidirectional I2C data line.
10 SCL bidirectional I2C clock line.
11 VUSB power_in USB power pin, internally connected to 3.3V, which should be locally bypassed with a high-quality ceramic capacitor.
12 D- bidirectional USB D- data line.
13 D+ bidirectional USB D+ data line.
14 VSS power_in Ground pin.
