GENERAL DESCRIPTION
over USB. With data transfer rates of up to 920k baud ( RS232 ) and 2,000 k baud ( RS422 / RS485 ) , the
FT8U232AM significantly raises the performance level above that above that of traditional ISA and PCI based
UART solutions whilst offering true plug and play and easy interfacing through it’s USB interface.
Legacy RS232
and instrumentation – in fact almost any equipment that previously used a slow RS232 link for communication.
