TTL-232RG-VSW3V3-WE
Overview
The TTL-232RG-VSW3V3-WE is a USB to serial UART converter cable incorporating the FT232RQ interface IC. It provides a simple method for connecting asynchronous serial devices to USB while handling all USB signaling and protocols. The cable is 1.8 meters long and features 6 wire leads for easy integration into custom projects or existing hardware.
Why Choose This Part
This cable integrates the entire conversion circuit into the USB connector, saving PCB space in the target application. It provides a fixed 3.3V output on the VCC wire with up to 50mA current capability to power small downstream circuits. The wire-ended design offers maximum flexibility for engineers to add their own proprietary or application-specific connectors.
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
To use this cable, install the FTDI VCP (Virtual COM Port) drivers to make the device appear as a standard serial port in your operating system. Connect the Black (GND), Yellow (RXD), and Orange (TXD) wires to your target system, ensuring the logic levels match the 3.3V rating. Terminal software such as PuTTY or Tera Term can be used to initiate serial communication at various standard baud rates.
