About this deal

The Arduinos have their on-board USB-TTL UART converters so they don’t usually run into the process of hooking this external module. For most of these operating systems two types of driver are available: Virtual COM Port (VCP) drivers and direct (D2XX) drivers. The VCP driver emulates a standard PC serial port such that the USB device may be communicated with as a standard RS232 device. The D2XX driver allows direct access to a USB device via a DLL interface.

Set the configuration bits to match the generic setting which we’ve stated earlier. And if you also find troubles creating this file, you can always refer to the previous tutorial using the link below. Electromagnetic Interference: A strong electromagnetic interference environment may affect the normal operation of the chip, causing performance problems or even damage. Below we answer all the questions you may have about the CH340 driver for Windows 10/11. Q1. What is a CH340 driver? Provide sufficient heat dissipation and temperature control to avoid use under extreme temperature conditions.Red - power. This pin provides up to 500mA current. YOU MUST NOT use other power supplies if you choose to power the target device with this Adaptor. FTDI Chip TTL-232RG-VIP-WE (RS 715-8513) includes voltage reference for setting UART signalling levels If you installed the drivers for the CH340 on your computer but have issues connecting via serial terminal or uploading code using the Arduino IDE, there may be an issue with your user settings preventing you from using the CH340. You may receive an avrdude: ser_open(): can't open device error similar to the output shown below. language:bash

The practical LAB of this tutorial is going to be a simple PC-Controlled embedded system. Which means a computer software is involved (for the PC) as long as a firmware code (for the Microcontroller). Computer Software After successful driver installation, the USB-TTL module should take a random COM port identifier as shown in the image down below. There is also an Update Now button if you wish to get only the CH340 driver updated. However, it is recommended to update all old drivers to ensure top-notch computer performance. There are many options to choose from for this part. You can obviously use any serial terminal (e.g. TeraTerm) or even the simple Arduino Serial Monitor or whichever you prefer.

For simulation purposes, you can use the generic Virtual Terminal in Proteus and just type in the data which you wanna send to the microcontroller. It should give you an idea of what will be happening with the USB-TTL module in the real testing phase. And the connection diagram is just the same.

Open the MPLAB IDE and create a new project name it “PC_Control_USB-TTL”. If you have some issues doing so, you can always refer to the previous tutorial using the link below. On the other hand, the serial ports provide a convenient way to shift out your data from the RAM to another device that can display it (e.g. Desktop, Laptop, Serial LCDs, etc). And that’s what we’re going to do in this tutorial. Search automatically for updated driver software on Windows 10. On Windows 11, Search automatically for drivers. By taking advantage of USB Bulk Transfer Mode, large data buffers, and automatic flow control, The PL-2303 is capable of achieving higher throughput. When real RS232 signaling is not required, baud rate higher than 115200 bps could be used for even higher performance. The flexible baud rate generator of PL-2303 could be programmed to generate any rate between 75 bps to 12M bps. At the end of the UART tutorial, you’ll have developed your own version of the following functions: UART_Init() and UART_TX()Harsh environment: Using FT232R under high, low, or humid temperature conditions, especially without proper heat dissipation measures, may lead to chip performance degradation, short circuits, or even damage. The FTDI Chip TTL-232x USB to Serial UART (TTL level) converter cables provide a simple and fast way to convert microcontroller UART serial I/O to USB. The TTL-232R contains a small circuit board which includes the FT232x chip. Encapsulated in a USB-A connector, making the cable easy and straight forward to use. The circuit is powered from the USB +5 V power pins, and any Vcc connection is always at +5 V dc. However products are available with signal TTL logic levels of either +3.3 V or +5 V.
