The microUSB (μUSB-MB5) is a USB to UART bridge converter which is simple, cost effective, very small and easy to use. It uses a mini-B type USB connector to connect to your PC and is based on the CP2102 Bridge from Silicon Labs. It provides the user with multi baud rate serial data and access to flow control signals in a convenient 10 pin 0.1? pitch Dual-In-Line package. The μUSB-MB5 is ideal for prototype or production.
Main Features:
- USB 2.0 compliant Full Speed 12Mbps maximum speed; Suspend supported
- Hardware or Xon/Xoff handshaking supported; 300bps to 1Mbps
- UART supports 5-8 bit data, 1-2 Stop bits, odd/even and no parity
- Integrated EEPROM for Vendor ID, product ID, serial number, release number
- On-chip 3.3V regulator available; power on reset circuit
- Virtual COM port drivers allow operation with existing COM port PC applications
- Supports Windows, MAC (OSX-9 and above) and Linux (2.4 kernel and above)
- Self powered or USB powered; -40 to +85 deg C temp range
- Small size; 15.4mm x 17.7mm (0.5? x 0.5?) approx.
- Traffic/Operation LED indicates board status
Typical Applications:
The microUSB (μUSB-MB5) makes an easy USB-Serial interface, so you caneasily create USB to RS-232 converters , USB to RS-422/RS-485 converters ,upgrade legacy RS232 devices, make PDA and cellphone USB interfacecables, barcode readers, POS terminals, etc. In any application, make sure the TX and RX lines from the μUSB are
crossed over to the attached peripheral. That is, the TX from the μUSBconnects to the RX of the target and the RX from the μUSB connects to theTX of the target device.
Note: the TX and RX signal levels are between 0.0 Volts and 3.3 Volts.
