Product description: USB-UART TTL converter FT232 - USB type C socket - Waveshare 20646
Module equipped with a converter, which allows communication between USB and UART serial interfaces on TTL level. It has built-in FT232 chip and works with voltage range from 3.3V to 5V which is selected by jumper. The device operates at full USB speed of 12 Mbps. The module can be used to exchange data between computer and microcontroller system or to program electronic kits with serial interface, such as Arduino or STM32Discovery. A cable with a USB type C connector is required to connect the chip to a computer.
Attention!
The module is compatible ONLY with TTL level, to avoid damage do not connect it directly to RS232 circuit.
Special features of the converter
- Single chip USB to UART data transfer
- No external resistors required
- USB function controller complies with USB 2.0 specification; full speed 12 Mbps
- Supports Mac OS, Linux, Android, WinCE, Windows 7/8/8.1/10/11
