The MM232R is a mini development
module for the FT232RQ IC device. It is a little bigger than a USB connector,
and provides USB - Serial UART interface in a extremely small form factor. It is
ideal for new development purposes, and also for adding a USB interface to
existing product designs.
Based on the FT232RQ device, the MM232R supports RTS/CTS hardware handshaking
and is powered from the USB port. Serial data communication is possible at up to
3MBaud at TTL level. In addition, some of the EEPROM configurable CBUS pins of
the FT232R are brought out allowing the MM232R to be used to provide clock
signals to external logic.
Two 1x4, and one 2x4 board headers with a standard 0.1" pitch are supplied with
the MM232R to allow for rapid prototyping and development. Some assembly
required.
Bonus! IB Technology's RFID base board has a socket for this
adapter, so you can give your IB Tech RFID reader USB connectivity! To see
