Virtual Com Port with two USB-headers

Status
Not open for further replies.
BUT without loose ends, I would like it to come with USB-headers in both ends.

It's an USB to serial converter. What should be the purpose of a second USB header?
 

Because it is much cooler than the ugly RS232-DB9 connector. PURE UGLY!
Guess I have to solder it myself if there is no such thing on the market then!
 

I won't expect a commercial product using a "misleading" connector. RJ45, smaller modular connectors or e.g. mini-DIN are often used for RS232 interfaces, but there's no definite standard.
 

Yeah the cable looks good, but it does not have the built in chip for virtual com port :/
 

No,

But want do you want for 50 cent? :razz:

You could always incorporate a FTDI chip into the device the DIN connector attaches.
 

I expect some good old fasihion rap music of 50 cent :)

Yeah sure, I could incorporate a FTDI chip on that side, but the PCB takes for ever to alter though. Was looking for a quick fix!
 

You could order a mating pair of similar DIN connectors from Digikey or Mouser and use them with your cable with a pig tail. So you could avoid those "ugly" DB9s.
 

yeah, sadly I think that solution isnt that nice either.

But thanks guys!
