Customer Questions & Answers
What are the exact dimensions and weight of the module, and does the Mini USB cable come in the box?
The module measures 43 mm x 17 mm and its approximate weight, without the cable, is 8 grams. The package generally includes 1 module and 1 Mini USB cable of around 20-30 cm, although cable length may vary by supplier.
What are its limits in terms of transmission speed and electrical parameters?
The FT232RL supports speeds of up to 3 Mbps in serial transfer. Select either 3.3 V or 5 V output using the jumper. The resettable fuse protects up to 500 mA. Exceeding these limits may result in communication errors or permanent damage.
What common problems can arise during installation and how are they solved?
The most common issues include no detection (solved by checking drivers and cable), reversed communication (check the RX/TX connection), and incorrect voltage selection (verify the jumper before connecting). If the LEDs do not light up, check the USB port and possible fuse failure.
Is this converter compatible with Arduino boards?
Yes, the FTDI FT232RL USB to TTL converter is compatible with Arduino boards and makes programming them easier through serial communication.
Which operating systems does this adapter support?
It is compatible with Windows (XP/Vista/7/8/10), Linux and MacOS, ensuring broad compatibility.
Do I need to install any drivers for it to work?
Yes, FTDI drivers need to be installed so the device is recognised correctly by the operating system.
Can I select the operating voltage?
Yes, the module allows you to select between 3.3V and 5V using a jumper, adapting to different TTL devices.
What is included in the package?
It includes the FTDI FT232RL USB to TTL converter module and a Mini USB cable for connection.
