Description

It's a blast-from-the-past with these FT232BL chips that Adafruit found while cleaning out a shelf at Adafruit. Adafruit haven't used these for years, having moved to the FT232R and CP210x. Stiiiiiiiiiilllll........with the silicon shortage, some folks may be building very old designs and need some of these ancient chips. No problem! Adafruit give you 10 pieces off of the reel, so you get one or two cut tape strips. They're a little long-in-the-tooth, and Adafruit don't recommend them for new designs, but they'll work just as you expect.
