Key Features

  • Utilizes the original FT232RL chip for fast, stable, and reliable communication with enhanced compatibility.
  • Onboard power galvanic isolation provides stable isolated voltage and does not require an additional power supply for the isolated side.
  • Onboard digital (ADI magnetic) isolation for signals ensures high reliability, strong anti-interference capabilities, and low power consumption.
  • Onboard TVS (Transient Voltage Suppressor) effectively suppresses surges and transient peak voltages in the circuit, providing lightning and ESD protection.
  • Onboard self-recovery fuse and protection diodes ensure stable output currents/voltages, overcurrent/overvoltage protection, and improved shock resistance.
  • Fully automatic transceiver circuit with no delay ensures fast and stable data exchange between the USB port and various interfaces without mutual interference.
  • Onboard 3.3V/5V TTL level converter allows adjusting the TTL level via a switch.
  • Aluminum alloy casing with sandblasting and anodic oxidation, manufactured using CNC, making it robust and durable.
  • 3 LEDs for power and transceiver status indication (PWR, TXD, RXD).
  • High-quality USB-B and RS232 (DB9 male) connectors for easy connection and disconnection.
  • Supports various operating systems: Mac, Linux, Android, Windows 11 / 10 / 8.1 / 8 / 7.

Important Note:

  • Only one of the interfaces (RS232, RS485, or TTL) can be converted to USB at a time.
  • RS232, RS485, and TTL interfaces cannot be converted to each other using this device.
