FT232RL USB to UART TTL Serial Adapter Module for Arduino

This FT232RL is a USB to serial breakout board of the very popular FT232RL IC from FTDI. This module is an excellent way to connect TTL serial devices to a PC through a USB port.

Features

• Single chip USB to asynchronous serial data transfer interface.
• Entire USB protocol handled on the chip. No USB specific firmware programming required.
• Fully integrated 1024 bit EEPROM storing device descriptors and CBUS I/O configuration.
• Fully integrated USB termination resistors.
• Fully integrated clock generation with no external crystal required plus optional clock output selection enabling a glue-less interface to external MCU or FPGA
• Data transfer rates from 300 baud to 3Mbaud at TTL level.
• 128 byte receive buffer and 256 bytes transmit buffer utilizing buffer smoothing technology to allow for high data throughput.
• Supports both 3.3V and 5V
• With power, sending, receiving indicator, working status LED indicator
• USB power has current protection, using a 500mA self-restore fuse.
• A simple way to connect TTL device to a PC
• RXD/TXD transceiver communication indicator
