FTDI USB to Serial Adapter Demo 

Source code for the console app is available for download from www.network13.contact

took an ftdi from dsd tech, follwed your instructions, in 10 mins working as you demo'd. true brilliance makes things simple. thanks.

I have no idea what I just watched but I was fascinated the whole time. I can't even begin to understand this but I can absolutely appreciate the work that went into it :)

Man this video is so cool. Right now i dive a bit deeper into hardware and tried to understand better how to use an oscilloscope and this is such a good example. You should probably make a little prequel video where you explain how the binary system works. Then even tech / computer novice would understand this. Great job! Thank you very much!

As someone who dreams of owning an oscilloscope one day, this was excellent. Thank you.

I’m still wondering why you don’t have one million subscribers. Now I fully understand how that gadget works. Thank you! Merry Christmas to you as well.

cool and thanks - that got me up and running with same USB to serial adapter.

Question: could I use this code to test homemade cables with any baud rate? I’m making a homemade serial cable which goes from an rs232 db9 female connection to an idc10 female connection which will be used to program an older fire alarm control unit I got for free when it was removed from a building during a system renovation. I want to make sure the cable doesn’t distort, corrupt, or not properly send data through it. I’m currently using a terminal app (PuTTY) which is basically a hyper terminal clone to test but I’m still not 100% sure if it will guarantee that the data I’m sending through the cable is being properly transmitted.

Hello, do you have to install drivers first so the computer will see the device? My computer is not showing usb serial port com 3

That digital signal can be used like a normal current to active an interruptor in an electrical circuit?

hello sir, thank you for your video, that helps me a lot. I have a question sir, the rate on the oscilloscope in the video is 9.6khz, but I need the rate to reach 10M. Does it need to use synchronous communication? Thank you sir

Nice one. Is there any way to get the code for your console app? Merry Christmas

Hi there, Thanks for this! Do you have details of what the board is and where to buy one?

Hello sir, great video. I have a usb to ftdi and i tried to connect TX with RX, send and received the packages. So i suppose it is working correctly. I would like to use it to program my car LPG ECU, i downloaded a software i found online for my lpg brand but i got no connection. Any suggestions?

You saved my life

Trying to get my ftdi to talk to my rc radio. Im getting red and green lights but no talk between the two

What is the difference between pl2303 and ftdi ft232r?

I want to program this "FDTI" for setconfig rns 510 please can you help me how I can do it my friend

can I use FTDI as a very-fast-switch? for morse code example, concept like this: short 0 / S0 = OFF for 0.5 sec long 0 / L0 = OFF for 5 sec short 1 / S1 = ON for 0.25 sec long 1 / L1 = ON for 1 sec so lets say, L0 S1 S0 L1 L0 = .- = A L0 L1 S0 S1 S0 S1 S0 S1 L0 = -... = B L0 L1 S0 S1 S0 L1 S0 S1 L0 = -.-. = C

Hey, if you are still reading the comments, let me know please. I have a question regarding a board that contains FT232 Chip. You're my last hope . If you see this comment - Thank you in advance!

can I get the code to check!

I guess I got brainwashed at the intro, aaahh my ears
