FTDI TTL / USB Converter Cable, 1.8V, 1.8m, Wire-End

The FTDI TTL-232RG-VREG1V8-WE is a high-quality USB to UART cable designed for converting 1.8V TTL-level signals to USB and vice versa. It features the FT232RQ USB-to-serial UART interface IC, which handles all USB signalling and protocols, making it an efficient solution for connecting devices with logic-level serial interfaces to USB.

This cable is equipped with a small internal electronic circuit board encapsulated into the USB connector end, while the opposite end is wire-ended for versatile connections. It supports a wide range of voltage levels and offers a high-speed data transfer rate of up to 3Mbaud.

Key Features:

• USB 2.0 Full Speed Compatible (12Mb/s)
• Supports FTDIChip-ID, with a unique USB serial number for secure access
• Direct connection to microcontroller UART or I/O pins
• UART interface support for 7 or 8 data bits, 1 or 2 stop bits, and multiple parity options
• Internal EEPROM with user-writable area for customization
• Compatible with UHCI/OHCI/EHCI host controllers
• Six-way outputs providing Tx, Rx, RTS#, CTS#, VCC, and GND

It is powered via USB and provides a maximum output of 100mA on VCC, making it suitable for powering external logic from the USB port. Additionally, the cable comes with USB drivers to enable virtual COM port functionality.

Applications:

• Communications & Networking
• Sensing & Instrumentation
• Industrial Automation
• Security Systems
• Automotive Electronics
