The FT232R is a USB to serial UART interface module that provides an easy and cost-effective way to add USB capability to microcontrollers or other devices. It is commonly used to give a breadboard or project USB capability for bootloading or downloading sketches.
Key Features:
1. USB to Serial Communication: The FT232R module allows seamless communication between a microcontroller or other UART-based devices and a computer through USB. It acts as a bridge, converting USB signals to serial UART signals and vice versa.
2. RXD/TXD Communication Indicator: The module features RXD (Receive) and TXD (Transmit) indicators, providing a visual indication of data transmission and reception.
3. Over-Current Protection: The FT232R module includes over-current protection, which utilizes a 500mA self-restoring fuse. This protects the module and connected devices from excessive current draw.
4. DTR Pin for Auto-Reset: The board includes a DTR (Data Terminal Ready) pin, which is essential for auto-reset functionality when downloading new firmware or sketches to the connected device. The auto-reset feature simplifies the programming process.
5. USB Power Supply Options: The module supports USB power supply at either 3.3V or 5V, making it compatible with a wide range of devices that operate at different voltage levels.
6. Compact Size: With dimensions of 43mm x 17mm, the FT232R module is compact and suitable for various applications where space is limited.
The FT232R USB to Serial UART interface module is a versatile and valuable tool for electronics enthusiasts and developers. Its ability to add USB capability to microcontrollers simplifies the development and programming process. Whether you are working on a hobby project, prototyping, or creating a custom communication interface, the FT232R module can be a useful and efficient addition to your toolkit. The red-colored module is visually appealing and easy to integrate into your projects.
