USB to RS232 converter cable aids interfacing to legacy applications
Future Technology Devices International Limited announced today the availability of its USB-RS232-WE cable that provides easy interfacing of USB to RS232-based devices. The 1.8m cable has a small PCB encapsulated into the USB connector that contains an FTDI FT232R serial UART IC interface plus a RS232 level shifter to provide true RS232 voltage levels. The integrated electronics also include Tx and Rx LEDs giving a visual indication of traffic on the cable via the transparent USB connector.
The The electronics within the cable are USB powered and fully USB 2.0 full speed compliant. Data transfer rates up to 1 Mbaud are supported. Each cable supports the FTDI-Chip-ID feature by having a unique USB serial number programmed into the FT232R device. Using this feature, designers can incorporate security or password protected file transfer.
