Questions

Is there a KiCad symbol and footprint for the FT201XQ-R?

Yes. The symbol is Interface_USB:FT201XQ and the footprint Package_DFN_QFN:QFN-16-1EP_4x4mm_P0.65mm_EP2.1x2.1mm, both drawn on this page. PCBKit places them on a board for you when you design with it.

What package is the FT201XQ-R?

QFN-16-EP(4x4), with 17 pins. Its footprint is drawn on this page.

Where is the FT201XQ-R datasheet?

FTDI publishes it: the Datasheet link on this page opens it.

Where can I order the FT201XQ-R?

JLCPCB lists it as part C2651887, with 5 in stock; the sellers' links on this page open their listings.

What can replace the FT201XQ-R?

Parts like it in the library: the FT230XQ-R by FTDI, the FT230XQ-T by FTDI, the FT201XQ-T by FTDI and the FT220XQ-T by FTDI. Check their datasheets: a part that fits the footprint may still differ in its ratings.

Which open-source boards use the FT201XQ-R?

3 boards in 3 repositories on GitHub; the most starred are listed on this page, with their KiCad files.
