In embedded systems, UART/serial ports are mainly used to view debug messages, to flash the program or to configure the device via command/response protocol.
The Industrial Grade Isolated USB to UART could be useful in various use cases.
High Voltage AC / DC Circuits
Isolated USB to UART Converter is mainly helpful for companies/engineers involved in building power electronics products or dealing with high-voltage DC or AC signals on their boards and want to connect them to a laptop or PC safely.
Connecting the board with HV AC or DC to a Laptop or PC USB port without isolation may damage the port or laptop. Non-isolated USB to UART converters also induce leakage currents in many situations and can significantly increase noise.
Low Power Embedded Designs which need 2.5V/1.8V
If you are working on Low-Power Designs like battery-powered asset trackers, wearables, or any battery-powered device, where UART is at a lower voltage level, you will need a USB-to-UART converter that supports those voltage levels.
That’s why CAPUF Embedded’s Isolated USB to UART Converter will help as a voltage section (1.8/2.5/3.3/5.0V) is provided.
Medical Electronics / Noise Sensitive circuits
As safety/induced noise is a great concern in many designs, an isolated USB to UART converter provides the best solution to connect your Embedded Board or product safely with a laptop or PC.
