Editing USB Gecko (section)

== Problems ==
Unfortunately, the USB Gecko uses a now out-of-production FTDI chip that is becoming increasingly scarce.  Cheap clones of the chip exist, but may or may not have perfect compatibility.  Also, the original USB Gecko itself has also been out of production for quite some time.  Schematics exist online, so you can build it yourself, should you acquire the parts, however.  Similarly to the FTDI chip it uses, the USB Gecko also has many clones available, some cheap, some not, that can be bought if you do not want to deal with building one yourself.
