Description

Description:

RS232 Board provides an interface between the TTL/CMOS logic levels commonly used on microcontrollers and the RS-232 bus. This RS232 Board allows to communicate through the RS-232 interface via the standard UART bus pins: RX and TX. The RS-232 board utilizes the SP3220E. This device can achieve communication speed up to 120 kbps.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

The main component of the RS-232 board is the SP3220E, a 3.0V to 5.5V low power, true RS-232 transceiver. This IC has one receiver and one transmitter channels, and it is used to bridge the physical differences between the CMOS/TTL signal levels and RS-232 bus levels. While CMOS/TTL signal levels vary from 0V to 5V typically, RS-232 uses the signal levels that range from ±5V, up to ±15 V. Important, that this interface do not use the RTS (Ready To Send) and CTS (Clear To Send) signals.
