FT232RL USB to Serial Converter

Overview

The USB UART converter is a device that converts the USB data transmission protocol to UART and vice versa. It is very often used to connect your computer to development boards or directly to micro controllers. The product uses the FT232RL integrated circuit, of very good quality and small size, found in the SMD package. The circuit also includes a 3.3 V regulator and a jumper allowing you to switch between 3.3 V and 5 V. There are also LEDs on the circuit indicating: power, reception, and transmission of data. Baud rate is adjustable. Do not forget to install the necessary driver on your computer.

This product uses a brand-new design, adopts the best FT232RL chip of USB2.0, and converts the USB into a serial port. There are two power supply versions. Before leaving the factory, each module adopts self-transmitting and self-receiving 10W bytes to pass the test!

Introduction to FT232R

With the development of computer technology, parallel ports and serial ports have slowly disappeared on PCs. Now, even desktop computers have few parallel ports. But for engineers, parallel ports and serial ports are essential interfaces, especially serial ports. For computers without a serial port, the most convenient solution is to use a USB to serial chip to virtualize a serial port. Many manufacturers have produced such chips, such as the CP210x series of silicon LABS, the TUSB3410 of TI, and the CH34x series of Nanjing Qinheng. FTDI's FT232 series, Prolific's PL230x series, ARK3116, etc. In terms of stability, the FT232 series is still the most reliable. You can use it to debug programs without worrying about the blue screen.

The FT232R chip is a single-chip solution. Generally, external devices are not required for general use. Even the crystal oscillator, USB matching resistor, and EEPROM for product information have been integrated inside. FT232R also has some useful functions. For details, please refer to the FT232R data manual.
