Genuine FTDI FT232RL USB to Serial UART Interface Chip x10PCS

Description

Overview
It is not uncommon to see, from time to time, the cries from innocent users that their FT232RL based devices with counterfeit chips
are bricked by official driver update
. One way to avoid the threat of counterfeits is to purchase from solid vendors, and we want to be one of them. Here are the procedures by which we followed so we can assure that the chips we sell are genuine.
Chips are sourced from vendors who we have been doing business with for years. Some of them are official distributors and some of them are specialized to handle factory surplus.
We visually check each chip to see if they are from the same batch.
We pick 5% percent from the total batch and decap the epoxy.
We visually check each silicon die of the samples under a microscope to see if they are identical with the known genuine chip.
Seeing is believing. We publish the silicon die shot on the product description page so you can see what is inside the chip and you decide whether to purchase it or not.
Here comes the die shot from 1 sample in 30pcs batch.
