CF Serial Card provides 5 V client supply.

info@productnews.com (ThomasNet Industrial Newsroom) — Wed, 05 Dec 2007 07:44:29 -0500

Providing RS232 connection, Model CF500 allows serial devices that require full 5 Vdc to be run from portable hosts, such as PDAs, which usually only supply 3.3 V through compact flash bus. Even when host input voltage is 3.3 V, card offers steady 5 V at 100 mA on pin 9, meaning peripherals can be powered without additional supply. Card automatically configures to become another COM port by using built-in OS drivers optimized for Windows, LINUX, and Mac.
