CE-USB USB2.0-to-RS232 adapter uses DB9 pcb pad pinout to allow updates to older serial products without any layout changes, and adds USB interface into existing serial products with no software or hardware redesign required. Device draws 35 mA from USB port, and drivers allow it to appear to operating system as additional COM port. It sends 8-bit asynchronous serial data at selectable speeds between 300-921.6 Kbps. All RS-232 signals, including handshakes, are available.

Model FT2232C dual-port USB-to-serial/parallel I/O IC is based on USB UART/FIFO FT232BM (USB-serial) and FT245BM (USB-parallel). Each of the dual ports configure independently in several different modes. Full modem hardware and software handshaking is offered in serial mode, with Automatic Transmit Enable control for RS485 applications. FTDI protocol allows galvanically isolated designs to communicate synchronously with FT2232C, using 2 dual optoisolators.
