The FT230X Dongle is a breakout board for the FT230X USB to UART converter from FTDI Chip, but with a USB Type A Male connector instead of the usual Type B Female connectors found on most breakout boards of this type. This board has been designed for embedded applications (such as Raspberry Pi and BeagleBone Black) where more UARTS are required than what the embedded board is usually able to provide. The FT230X Dongle plugs straight into the USB port, eliminating the need for an extra USB cable. All relevant pins of the FT230X IC are exposed, and Power / Rx / Tx LEDs are also included on the board. |
