Questions

Is there a KiCad symbol and footprint for the FT232HL?

Yes. The symbol is Interface_USB:FT232H and the footprint Package_QFP:LQFP-48_7x7mm_P0.5mm, both drawn on this page. PCBKit places them on a board for you when you design with it.

What package is the FT232HL?

LQFP48, with 48 pins. Its footprint is drawn on this page.

What can replace the FT232HL?

Parts like it in the library: the HK32F030C8T6A by HK, the CH338L by WCH (Nanjing Qinheng Microelectronics), the AT32F402CBT7 by ARTERY and the STM32C071CBT6 by STMicroelectronics. Check their datasheets: a part that fits the footprint may still differ in its ratings.

Which open-source boards use the FT232HL?

22 boards in 13 repositories on GitHub; the most starred are listed on this page, with their KiCad files.
