SnipCard RS232

This SnipCard enables communication in RS232 mode through the transceiver ST3232 made by Texas Instruments. With breadbording cables you can easily adapt it to work with every Arduino board model.

Description

The RS232 SnipCard is built on our highly reliable COM SnipCard. This SnipCard could be configured to work in many ways, like:

  • CAN BUS interface;
  • RS232 interface;
  • RS485 interface;
  • I2C buffered interface;
  • 1WIRE buffered interface;
  • I2C buffered, galvanically isolated interface;
  • 1WIRE buffered, galvanically isolated interface;
  • generic I/O buffer and / or galvanic isolation (in the range 0-10VDC);
  • UART half duplex.

Technical specifications (from ST3232 datasheet)

  • 300 µA supply current
  • 300 kbps minimum guaranteed data rate
  • 6 V/µs minimum guaranteed slew rate
  • Meets EIA/TIA-232 specifications down to 3 V

The ST3232B and ST3232C devices are 3 V powered EIA/TIA-232 and V.28/V.24 communication interfaces with low power requirements and high data-rate capabilities. These devices have a proprietary low dropout transmitter output stage providing true RS-232 performance from 3 to 5.5 V supplies. The devices require only four small 0.1 mF standard external capacitors for operation from a 3 V supply. The ST3232B and ST3232C have two receivers and two drivers. The devices are guaranteed to run at data rates of 250 kbps while maintaining RS-232 output levels.

  • n. 1 SnipCard RS232

Usage

  1. On Archiduino Base Board, insert the SnipCard in M2 or M3 module (using Arduino IDE code, M2 is Serial1 and M3 is Serial);
  2. Enable communication in Arduino IDE (setting the right the BAUD rate):
    void Setup() 
    {
        Serial1.begin (9600);  // use Serial.begin if RS232 SnipCard is placed on M3 module;
    }
  3. Serial communication is ready to be configured and used in the code.
