The USB-RS485-PCB is a USB to RS485 level serial UART
converter PCB incorporating FTDI’s
FT232RQ USB to Serial UART interface IC
device which handles all the USB signalling and protocols. The PCB
provides a fast, simple way to connect devices with a RS485 interface to
USB.
Each USB-RS485-PCB contains a small internal electronic
circuit board, utilising the
FT232R plus a USB type-A connector. The
integrated electronics also include an RS485 transceiver plus Tx and Rx
LEDs which give a visual indication of UART traffic.
The PCB is USB powered and USB
2.0 full speed compatible. Each PCB supports a
data transfer rate up to 3 Mbaud and supports
the
FTDIChip-ID™,
with a unique USB serial number programmed into
the
FT232R. This
feature can be used to create a security or
password protected file transfer access using
the PCB.
