The FT245R is a USB to parallel IC.

I would suggest you look at the UBW - which is far better for what you want, being designed specifically for it.

If you need more then parallel look at the USB bit whacker in my sig

Very little really, check the UBW website for the circuit - I easily built one based on my 16F876 tutorial board, it was simple to modify the existing veroboard layout.
