  2. RS-232 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RS-232

    The standard specifies a maximum open-circuit voltage of 25 volts: signal levels of ±5 V, ±10 V, ±12 V, and ±15 V are all commonly seen depending on the voltages available to the line driver circuit. Many RS-232 driver chips have inbuilt charge pump circuitry to produce the required voltages from a 3 or 5 volt supply. RS-232 drivers and ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COM_(hardware_interface)

    After the RS-232 COM port was removed from most consumer-grade computers, an external USB-to-UART serial adapter cable was used to compensate for the loss. A major supplier of these chips is FTDI. [citation needed]

  4. MAX232 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MAX232

    MAX232 chip in DIP-16 package The die of a MAX232 MAX232 pinout: Red: power, Yellow: charge pump capacitors, Blue: outputs, Green: inputs, Pins 9–12: TTL/CMOS I/O voltages. The MAX232 is an integrated circuit by Maxim Integrated Products, now a subsidiary of Analog Devices, that converts signals from a TIA-232 (RS-232) serial port to signals suitable for use in TTL-compatible digital logic ...

    The electric signaling levels are handled by a driver circuit external to the UART. Common signal levels are RS-232, RS-485, and raw TTL [1] for short debugging links. Early teletypewriters used current loops. It was one of the earliest computer communication devices, used to attach teletypewriters for an operator console.

  6. USB-to-serial adapter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB-to-serial_adapter

    FTDI US232R : USB to RS-232 cable. A USB-to-serial adapter or simply USB adapter is a type of protocol converter that is used for converting USB data signals to and from serial communications standards (serial ports). Most commonly the USB data signals are converted to either RS-232, RS-485, RS-422, or TTL-level UART serial data.

  7. FTDI - Wikipedia

    FTDI TTL-232RG: USB to UART cable FTDI FT232RL: USB to UART IC (in SSOP package) Internal die of FTDI FT232RL chip FTDI was founded on 13 March 1992 [3] by its current CEO, Fred Dart (whose initials happen to be "FTD").

  8. Serial port - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_port

    A male D-subminiature connector used for an RS-232 serial port on an IBM PC compatible computer along with the serial port symbol. A serial port is a serial communication interface through which information transfers in or out sequentially one bit at a time. [1]

  9. Serial cable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_cable

    Serial cables are typically used for RS-232 communication. A serial cable or RS-232 cable is a cable used to transfer information between two devices using a serial communication protocol. The form of connectors depends on the particular serial port used. A cable wired for connecting two DTEs directly is known as a null modem cable.
