Introduction
CH340 is a USB bus conversion chip, it can realize USB to UART interface or USB to printer interface.
In serial UART mode, CH340 provides a common MODEM liaison signal, used to expand the UART interface of the computer or upgrade the common serial device to a USB bus directly. For more information on USB conversion to printer interface please refer to the manual CH340DS2.
Features
- Full-speed USB device interface, compatible with USB V2.0.
- Emulate standard UART interface, used to upgrade the serial peripherals, or expand UART interface via USB bus.
- Original serial applications are compatible, without any modification in the Windows operation system.
- Hardware full duplex serial UART interface, built-in transmit-receive buffer, supports communication baud rate varies from 50bps to 2Mbps.
- Supports common MODEM liaison signal RTS, DTR, DCD, RI, DSR, and CTS.
- Through external level conversion chip provide further RS232, RS485, RS422 interface, etc.
- Software compatible with CH341, use the driver of CH341 directly.
- Support 5V and 3.3V power supply even 3V.
- CH340G/CH340T/CH340R chips need to work with a 12MHz clock signal supplied to the XI pin. Generally, the clock signal is generated by crystal oscillation with an inverter in CH340. The peripheral circuit needs to place a crystal of 12MHz between XI and XO and connect to a capacitor to ground separately.
- SOP-16 lead-free RoHS-compliant package.
