4. Производ је готовview
The FTDI TTL-232R-3V3 is a USB to serial UART (Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter) converter cable. It provides a USB-A connector on one end and a 6-pin SIL (Single In-Line) connector with 0.1" pitch on the other, offering +3.3V TTL level signals. The cable integrates an FT232R IC, handling all USB signaling and protocols.

4.1 Опис Пиноут
The 6-pin SIL connector provides the following signals:
| Пин | Сигнал | Опис |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | ГНД | Гроунд |
| 2 | ЦТС | Clear To Send (Input to FT232R) |
| 3 | ВЦЦ | +5V power output from USB |
| 4 | ТКСД | Transmit Data (Output from FT232R) |
| 5 | РКСД | Receive Data (Input to FT232R) |
| 6 | РТС | Request To Send (Output from FT232R) |
Note: The VCC pin (Pin 3) provides +5V from the USB port, which can be used to power external circuitry up to 75mA. The data signals (TXD, RXD, CTS, RTS) operate at +3.3V TTL levels.
5. Подешавање
5.1 Инсталација драјвера
The FTDI TTL-232R-3V3 cable requires specific drivers to function correctly on your computer. These drivers are often automatically installed by modern operating systems (Windows 10/11, macOS, Linux) when the cable is first connected. If automatic installation fails, or for older operating systems, manual installation may be necessary.
- Преузмите драјвере: Visit the official FTDI webсајт (ввв.фтдицхип.цом/Дриверс/ВЦП.хтм) to download the latest Virtual COM Port (VCP) drivers for your operating system.
- Инсталирајте драјвере: Follow the instructions provided with the downloaded driver package. This typically involves running an executable file or following on-screen prompts.
- Повежите кабл: Plug the USB-A end of the TTL-223R-3V3 cable into an available USB port on your computer.
- Проверите инсталацију:
- Виндовс: Open Device Manager (search for "Device Manager" in the Start menu). Look under "Ports (COM & LPT)" for an entry like "USB Serial Port (COMx)", where 'x' is a number.
- мацОС: Open Terminal and type
ls /dev/tty.usbserial*. You should see an entry corresponding to the cable. - Линук: Open Terminal and type
ls /dev/ttyUSB*. You should see an entry corresponding to the cable.
5.2 Connecting to a Target Device
Connect the 6-pin SIL connector to your target device's UART interface. Ensure correct pin alignment:
- Connect the cable's ТКСД (Pin 4) to the target device's РКСД.
- Connect the cable's РКСД (Pin 5) to the target device's ТКСД.
- Connect the cable's ГНД (Pin 1) to the target device's ГНД.
- If hardware flow control is used, connect ЦТС (Pin 2) to target's РТС и РТС (Pin 6) to target's ЦТС.
- If powering the target device from the cable, connect the cable's ВЦЦ (Pin 3) to the target device's +5В input (ensure the target device can accept 5V and its current draw does not exceed 75mA).
Опрез: Always double-check the pinout of your target device to avoid damage due to incorrect connections.
6. Упутство за употребу
Once the drivers are installed and the cable is connected to your target device, you can use a serial terminal program to communicate.
- Open Terminal Program: Use a serial terminal application such as PuTTY (Windows), CoolTerm (macOS/Windows), or Minicom/screen (Linux).
- Select COM Port: In the terminal program settings, select the COM port number identified during driver installation (e.g., COM3, /dev/ttyUSB0).
- Configure Serial Settings:
- Број бауда: Set to match your target device's baud rate (e.g., 9600, 115200, up to 3MBaud).
- Битови података: Обично 8
- Паритет: Ниједан
- Стоп битови: Обично 1
- Контрола тока: None, or Hardware (RTS/CTS) if enabled on your target device.
- Успоставите везу: Open the serial connection in your terminal program. You should now be able to send and receive data from your target device.
7. Одржавање
- Чишћење: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the cable and connectors. Do not use liquid cleaners or solvents.
- Складиштење: Store the cable in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Avoid tangling the cable.
- инспекција: Periodically inspect the cable for any signs of damage, such as frayed wires, bent pins, or cracked insulation. Discontinue use if damage is found.
