The\n \u003cstrong\u003e\n  FTDI to USB-C Cable\n \u003c\/strong\u003e\n is your go-to solution for easy serial communication with TTL interface devices, minus the frustration of getting the plug orientation right. Built around the reliable\n \u003cstrong\u003e\n  RS232 chipset\n \u003c\/strong\u003e\n , this cable converts\n \u003cstrong\u003e\n  USB-C to TTL serial\n \u003c\/strong\u003e\n , making it perfect for makers, tinkerers, and engineers who need to interface with microcontrollers, sensors, and other devices.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n The\n \u003cstrong\u003e\n  1-meter cable\n \u003c\/strong\u003e\n features a sturdy\n \u003cstrong\u003e\n  26AWG\n \u003c\/strong\u003e\n construction with a\n \u003cstrong\u003e\n  2-inch protective enclosure\n \u003c\/strong\u003e\n around the USB-C connector, ensuring durability in all your projects. On the other end, a\n \u003cstrong\u003e\n  6-pin 0.1\" pitch connector\n \u003c\/strong\u003e\n provides quick access to common serial lines: RTS, RX, TX, VCC (5V), CTS, and GND, making it easy to hook up to your devices.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\n While this FTDI cable offers better protection and a streamlined setup than the\n \u003cstrong\u003e\n  FTDI Basic\n \u003c\/strong\u003e\n , it does come with some trade-offs. The FTDI Basic is more compact and has handy LED indicators, but it relies on a Mini-B cable, and we all know how those are slowly becoming extinct. With this\n \u003cstrong\u003e\n  USB-C cable\n \u003c\/strong\u003e\n , you get modern connectivity and rugged durability—just be aware it uses\n \u003cstrong\u003e\n  RTS\n \u003c\/strong\u003e\n instead of\n \u003cstrong\u003e\n  DTR\n \u003c\/strong\u003e\n for hardware resets.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\n Key Features:\n\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  \u003cstrong\u003e\n   USB-C to TTL Serial\n  \u003c\/strong\u003e\n  : Modern and convenient, no more USB orientation struggles\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  \u003cstrong\u003e\n   RS232 Chipset\n  \u003c\/strong\u003e\n  : Provides stable communication between devices\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  \u003cstrong\u003e\n   1-Meter Length\n  \u003c\/strong\u003e\n  : Long enough to offer flexibility, short enough to avoid cable clutter\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  \u003cstrong\u003e\n   6-Pin Connector\n  \u003c\/strong\u003e\n  : RTS (Green), RX (Yellow), TX (Orange), VCC 5V (Red), CTS (Brown), GND (Black)\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  \u003cstrong\u003e\n   26AWG Cable\n  \u003c\/strong\u003e\n  : Durable and capable of handling high voltages up to 300V\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  \u003cstrong\u003e\n   5V VCC, 3.3V I\/O\n  \u003c\/strong\u003e\n  : Ideal for most TTL level devices\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\n Specifications:\n\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  \u003cstrong\u003e\n   Cable Length\n  \u003c\/strong\u003e\n  : 1 meter\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  \u003cstrong\u003e\n   Connector Type\n  \u003c\/strong\u003e\n  : USB-C to 6-pin 0.1\" pitch\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  \u003cstrong\u003e\n   Pinout\n  \u003c\/strong\u003e\n  : RTS (Green), RX (Yellow), TX (Orange), VCC 5V (Red), CTS (Brown), GND (Black)\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  \u003cstrong\u003e\n   Wire Gauge\n  \u003c\/strong\u003e\n  : 26AWG\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  \u003cstrong\u003e\n   Voltage Tolerance\n  \u003c\/strong\u003e\n  : Up to 300V max\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  \u003cstrong\u003e\n   Enclosure\n  \u003c\/strong\u003e\n  : 2-inch protective case on the USB-C end\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\n What's in the Box:\n\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  1 x FTDI to USB-C Cable (5V VCC, 3.3V I\/O)\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  \u003cstrong\u003e\n   Note\n  \u003c\/strong\u003e\n  : Accessories may vary based on supply.\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\n Important Notes:\n\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  This cable uses\n  \u003cstrong\u003e\n   RTS\n  \u003c\/strong\u003e\n  for resets instead of\n  \u003cstrong\u003e\n   DTR\n  \u003c\/strong\u003e\n  , which may affect certain use cases.\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Ideal for connecting TTL devices to modern laptops and PCs with USB-C ports.\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003e\n  Ensure proper voltage levels for your specific TTL device before use.\n \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n","brand":"Unmanned Tech","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54199816716552,"sku":"CAB-14909","price":12.66,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bidnamic.store\/products\/sparkfun-ftdi-to-usb-c-cable-5v-vcc-3-3v-i-o","provider":"Bidnamic Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
