Description

The VSWA2-63DR+ is an electronic component model in the IC Chips product category. This model is a USB to TTL serial UART converter cable that incorporates FTDI's FT232RQ USB to Serial UART interface IC device. It provides a fast and simple way to connect devices with a logic level serial interface to USB.

Specifications and features

- TTL-232RG generic converter cable provides a USB to TTL Serial interface with various logic levels.

- On board FT232RQ provides single chip USB to asynchronous serial data transfer interface.

- Entire USB protocol handled by the electronics in the cable USB.

- Connect directly to a microcontroller UART or I/O pins.

- UART interface support for 7 or 8 data bits, 1 or 2 stop bits and odd / even / mark / space / no parity.

- Fully assisted hardware (RTS#/CTS#) or X-On / X-Off software handshaking.

- Data transfer rates from 300 baud to 3 Mbaud at TTL levels.

- Internal EEPROM with user writable area.

- Wide range of output drive voltages 1.8V to 5.0V safe TTL inputs makes the TTL-232RG easy to interface to 5.0V MCU's.

- FTDI's royalty-free VCP allow for communication as a standard emulated COM port and D2XX 'direct' drivers provide DLL application programming interface.

- Support for FT232R FTDIChip-ID feature for improved security.

- Voltage output power allows external logic to be powered from the USB port.

- Cable can be used to accept IO voltage from application interface logic allowing users to supply IO voltage levels.

- 6 way outputs provide Tx, Rx, RTS#, CTS#, VCC and GND.

- Low USB bandwidth consumption.

- UHCI / OHCI / EHCI host controller compatible.

- USB 2.0 (12Mb/s) Full Speed compatible.

- Operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

- Cable length is 1.80m (6 feet).

- FCC and CE compliant.

- Custom versions also available (subject to MOQ).
