Rs232 usb converter schematic

Test and Measurement After you finished the soldering or received the assembled board , you should connect the module to the computer and configure the MCP chip, if it is necessary. Figure 9 shows a screenshot of the utility software. In my case, on the first try, LEDs were not blinking, so I had to enable the blinking in the configuration.

Figure 10 provides the wiring diagram of the module. With this guide, you should not have any problem with connections and wirings. I connected the RX signal of the module computer is the transmitter to the Siglent SDSX Plus oscilloscope [8] to examine the signal and decode the data. At the same time, I played with the jumper to switch between 3.

Figure 11 shows the UART signal and the decoded data and figure 12 shows the same signal with the enabled result-list that can be used to examine the timing, errors.. For more details please check the video.
