Re: LF: Re: USB TO SERIAL

[Andy Talbot <andy.g4jnt@gmail.com>]

Its years since I bought one of their modules, and I never got one of theirs with the RS232 level translator.  Nowadays I just use the raw chip and build into my own designs.  But this page contains their range : http://www.ftdichip.com/Products/Cables/USBRS232.htm

One of those listed should do you

I agree, you can buy FT232 absed ready made modules for about 10-15 Euro.

Without a doubt, One from FTDI chip : www.ftdichip.com

 

Absolutely flawless, drivers easy to install.  Never had a single problem with their family.

I use the raw FT232 chips and ready made modules , and so far have probably connected something like 60 - 70 of them at various times (at least that is what the all-time USB finder reports)

 

Beware cheapskate Ebay purchases - there are several Chinese copies out there that are very bad indeed.
