TTL-232R-5V-PCB
Overview
The TTL-232R-5V-PCB is a USB to TTL serial UART converter PCB incorporating the FT232RQ IC. It provides a simple method for connecting asynchronous serial interface devices to USB, handling all USB signaling and protocols on-board. The module features a 6-pin header that provides access to Tx, Rx, RTS#, CTS#, VCC, and GND for direct connection to microcontrollers.
Why Choose This Part
This PCB-only solution is ideal for compact integration within custom enclosures where a full cable assembly is not required. It supports high-speed data transfer from 300 baud to 3 Mbaud and features an internal EEPROM for storing custom descriptors like VID and PID.
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
To use this module, install the royalty-free FTDI Virtual COM Port (VCP) drivers to make the device appear as a standard COM port in your OS. Connect the 6-pin header to your target hardware, ensuring the 5V logic levels are compatible with your microcontroller IO. For custom application development, the FTDI D2XX 'direct' drivers provide a comprehensive DLL-based API.
