The EVAL232R is a USB to RS232 converter module based on
the FT232RL IC. The module features both a USB type B connector and an
RS232 based DB9 connector interface. The FT232RL device is used to provide
the USB to serial UART interface conversion. An onboard level shifter is used
to provide RS232 signal levels. Additional header pins on the board provide
access to the FT232RL device's configurable CBUS interface pins on the FT232RQ.
The module is powered from the USB interface with 5V and 3V I/O
interfacing supported on the CBUS I/O pins. The DB9 RS232 interface supports full
RTS/CTS flow control, and DTR/DSR hardware handshaking. DCD and RI signals are
also available. RS232 communication is possible at up to 250kBaud.
LEDs are fitted to indicate traffic activity.
