Phew, there are a lot of features on the FT232H breakout!  In fact more features than have been covered in this guide.  Check out some of the resources below for information on more things you can do with the FT232H:

* Official FT232H Datasheet

* [http://www.ftdichip.com/Support/Documents/DataSheets/ICs/DS_FT232H.pdf Official FT232H Datasheet]

** The reference for all information about the FT232H.  You should consider at least skimming this document, or even reading it in depth in order to understand all of the chip's capabilities.

* MPSSE Command Reference

** This reference details the low-level commands that control the MPSSE component of the FT232H chip.

** Check out the FT PROG tool for a utility that allows you to write the EEPROM on the FT232H breakout and control the C8 and C9 pin functionality.  These pins can be configured to drive status LEDs, generate limited waveforms, or just act as a high or low signal.  Check the datasheet for more information on all of the parameters that the EEPROM can control.  Note that FT PROG unfortunately is only supported on Windows. If you're planning to use FT PROG be sure to see the note about erasing the EEPROM further below!

* libftdi

** libftdi is a nice open source alternative to FTDI's binary drivers.  You can find more details here about interacting with the FT232H at a low level using libftdi.

* libmpsse

* [https://code.google.com/p/libmpsse/ libmpsse]

** This is a nice library to access the MPSSE functionality of the FT232H, and is an alternative to the Python GPIO library shown in this guide.  You might check out this library if you find the Python GPIO library is too limited.

* OpenOCD Hardware

* [http://openocd.sourceforge.net/doc/html/Debug-Adapter-Hardware.html OpenOCD Hardware]

** If you're doing development with ARM chips the OpenOCD debugger tool is invaluable for stepping through the execution of chips using the JTAG protocol.  FTDI chips with an MPSSE like the FT232H can even speak JTAG and work with OpenOCD for on-chip debugging.
