SLAMTEC RPLIDAR Serial Port Adapter Board A2/A3/S1
The SLAMTEC RPLIDAR Serial Port Adapter Board A2/A3/S1 is a dedicated interface module that connects SLAMTEC RPLIDAR A2, A3, or S1 360° LiDAR scanners to a computer via USB. This compact board integrates a Silicon Labs CP2102 USB-to-UART bridge chip, allowing the scanner’s serial data and power lines to be carried over a standard USB link.
Features:
- Converts UART serial signals to USB for direct computer connectivity.
- Includes a dip switch for selectable baud rates of 115200bps or 256000bps.
- Compatible with RPLIDAR A2M7, A2M12, A3M1, and S1M1 models.
- Supplies 5VDC power to the LIDAR via USB, eliminating external power needs.
