The USB-RS-232 ComBridge is a three port adapter featuring an FTDI FT-232 USB virtual com port (VCP) adapter, logically bridged with bi-directional MAX-232 mediated (+/-) 8V RS-232 via DB-9 MALE connector and 5V TTL level serial data in RS-232 0-+5V logical format.
The RECEIVE port of each the three inputs feeds the TRANSMIT (TX) port of the other two.
The TRANSMIT port of each channel likewise feeds the RX line of the other two.
In short this is a Full Featured BRIDGE.
Note that the TX and RX lines of the RS-232 DB-9 have 3 pin jumper selectors that allow pin 2,3 ( RX,TX ) to be reversed - such that with a FEM-FEM adapter, the port can be used as a HOST RS-232 rather than the default slave mode represented by the MALE connector on the PCB as delivered.
It is useful for ATMEL/ARDUINO/and MICROCHIP-PIC MCU designs requiring interface to other systems, especially including USB to WINDOWS, OS-X, and
LINUX host computers via VCP protocols.
A convenient activity LED is included on the PCB and when the power utility jumper is set- (+)5V from the Host computer is available on the TTL 4 pin interface to potentially power low demand circuitry attached to the bridge as well.
Useable at data rates of up to 400kbaud.
Options:
Right Angle DB9
Size: 1.46" X 3.0" // [37mm] X [76.2mm]
Mounting: (2) 0.14" [3.5mm] diameter holes on 1.14" [29mm] centers.
