Features of the USB-UART converter
- Based on CH343 chip: Supports higher data rate (up to 6Mbps).
- Compatible with operating systems: Mac, Linux, Android, Windows 7/8 / 8.1 / 10/11.
- Built-in resettable fuse, transient voltage choke. The module has overcurrent, anti-overvoltage and anti-static protections, improving shock resistance. Provides stable and secure communication.
- Built-in 3.3V and 5V TTL level switch to select TTL communication level.
- Support for 3.3V / 5V output (the module is powered by USB, and the jumper on the board should be properly shorted to 3.3V or 5V).
