FTDI Chip Adapter Board


The FTDI Chip adaptor board belongs to a family of communication devices. This model provides a simple method of adapting legacy serial devices with RS422 interfaces to modern USB ports. This is accomplished by incorporating the industry standard FTDI FT232R USB-serial bridge chip. The integrated electronics of the board utilise the FTDI FT232R and includes RS422 level shifters plus TXD/RXD LEDs to provide a visual indication of data traffic through the module. It uses a standard USB-B device connector for connection to an upstream host or hub port. This module requires USB device drivers used to make the board appear as a Virtual COM Port (VCP). This allows existing serial communications software such as HyperTerminal to exchange data through the board to a legacy RS422 peripheral device.
