LC231X

The LC231X from FTDI is a low cost FT231X USB to UART development module. It provides a low cost USB to UART bridge using the FT231X IC to transfer data at up to 3M baud. The FT231X is a USB to serial UART interface with full modem control. This development module is ideal for programming Arduino Pro, ESP modules etc. The pin-outs follow the industry standard FTDI TTL cable interface. The module provides power and UART interface with full modem handshaking control. The LC231X IO interface also provides the option to output 5V power to external hardware. The interface IO levels may be set to either set to 3V3 or 5V by an on-board jumper with no soldering /de-soldering required. In 5V mode, outputs are rail to rail for maximum reliability. The LC231X module provides 2 interface options. One is a 1X6 pin right angle socket header which follows the industry standard FTDI TTL cable interface for basic UART signals (RXD, TXD, RTS, CTS, power and GND).
