FTDI USB to TTL Serial Converter Cable, 3.3V, 1.8m

The FTDI USB to TTL Serial Converter Cable is a high-performance solution for connecting devices with a TTL level serial interface to USB. This cable incorporates the FT232RQ USB to Serial UART interface IC, which handles all USB signalling and protocols, providing a fast, simple, and reliable connection.

Featuring a compact electronic circuit board encapsulated into the USB connector, this cable ensures efficient data transfer with minimal USB bandwidth consumption. The 6-pin SIL connector (0.1-inch pitch) on the other end allows direct connection to microcontroller UART or I/O pins.

Key Features:

• FTDI Chip-ID technology ensures secure file transfer with a unique USB serial number.
• 3.3V TTL level output enables powering external logic directly from the USB port.
• High-speed data transfer supports baud rates up to 3Mbaud.
• Internal EEPROM includes a user-writable area for custom configurations.
• USB-powered and fully USB 2.0 full-speed compatible.

Applications:

• Communications & Networking
• Industrial automation
• Wireless and sensing devices
• Instrumentation and prototyping
• Microcontroller development and debugging

With a 1.8m cable length, this converter is ideal for flexible placements. Note that USB drivers are required for operation (available from FTDI’s website).
