Enabling USB-UART
In order to enable USB-UART
communication, you must push
SW5.1 (RC6) and SW5.2 (RC7)
to ON position. This connects the
RX and TX lines to appropriate
microcontroller pins and its first
UART module.
DATA BUS
v7
Modern PC computers, laptops and notebooks are
no longer equpped with RS-232 connectors and
UART controllers. They are nowdays replaced with USB
connectors and USB controllers. Still, certain technology
enables UART communication to be done over USB connection.
Controllers such as FT232RL from FTDI® convert UART signals to
the appropriate USB standard. In order to use USB-UART module on
(CN12), and microcontroller UART module. To establish
this connection, you must connect RX and TX lines
of the microcontroller to the appropriate input
and output pins of the FT232RL.
This selection is done using DIP
switches SW5.1 and SW5.2.
