LORDWORLD FT232 USB UART TTL Converter Type C development board

SKU CH-752E-S5K3X

USB-C serial converter board with original FT232RL chip, selectable 3.3 V or 5 V logic via jumper, and TXD, RXD, RTS, CTS pin headers

  • Original FT232RL chip ensures reliable serial conversion
  • USB Type-C connector fits modern hosts without adapters
  • Three VCCIO jumper modes give 5 V, 3.3 V or target-board power
  • TXD, RXD, RTS, CTS pins on headers plus extra holes for prototyping
  • Works with Mac OS, Linux, Android, WinCE and Windows 7 through 11

FT232 USB UART TTL Converter Type C Board

This development board provides a USB Type-C to serial UART interface using the original FT232RL chip. It targets makers and engineers who need reliable serial communication with microcontrollers or embedded modules. The board operates at selectable 3.3 V or 5 V logic levels controlled by a jumper. Three onboard LEDs indicate power, TX and RX activity.

Suitable for cross-platform serial debugging

Engineers who require hardware flow control will appreciate the accessible RTS and CTS pins on the header. Developers needing higher baud rates or multi-channel UART should consider other solutions. The single-channel FT232RL does not support parallel or SPI interfaces. Buyers wanting isolated or industrial-grade voltage translation should look elsewhere.

Jumper-selectable 3.3 V or 5 V VCCIO logic level

The VCCIO jumper offers three modes: fixed 5 V output, fixed 3.3 V output, or power taken directly from the target board between 3.3 V and 5 V. This flexibility decides whether the board matches the voltage domain of the connected device. Incorrect jumper placement can damage 3.3 V only peripherals.

Questions about this item

Should I set the jumper to 3.3 V or 5 V for my target board?

Use the 3.3 V position when your board runs at 3.3 V, the 5 V position for 5 V logic, or remove the jumper entirely to let the target board supply its own 3.3 V–5 V rail.

What does the FT232RL chip actually do once the board is plugged in?

It enumerates as a virtual COM port on Windows 7 through 11, Mac OS, Linux, Android or WinCE and translates USB traffic into 3.3 V or 5 V asynchronous serial with TXD, RXD, RTS# and CTS# signals.

Does the USB Type C connector limit the baud rate compared to older USB A versions?

The connector itself imposes no baud-rate ceiling; the FT232RL handles the same signalling rates regardless of the physical USB plug shape.
