Great product for hacking Kindle

For MicroFTX USB-Serial Breakout

This product works very well for hacking Kindle as it supports 1.8V rs232 signals. I earlier bought something simular from China, but it just did not work as it drew too much current from the RS232 port of the device.

This adapter worked just fine!

Downside was the high shipment cost which were almost as expensive as the adapter itself

Great little product

For MicroFTX USB-Serial Breakout

Lightning fast shipping on this one, overseas.
Great little product, good quality board.
As for documentation you can find all that you need on the creator's website and also on-line from the chip manufacturer. No headaches whatsoever, on W7

Great board

For MicroFTX USB-Serial Breakout

Bought one of these to test some custom drivers I wrote for the chipset, the board works great. Very fast shipping as well, I was expecting to wait a while but the board arrived within a day or two of my ordering it.

The best TTL serial to USB period.

For MicroFTX USB-Serial Breakout

Supported on all platforms, huge fifo, with FTDI's versatility, combined with a tiny but very friendly board with solder jumpers so you can use it on practically anything - 3.3 or 5v power or I/O, just do a quick pass of the soldering iron.

Update: it works well with https://www.tindie.com/products/smokingresistor/s1216f8-gps-board-with-50-hz-update-rate/ which can go at 921600 baud - and needs the much higher baud rates. Make sure to configure the voltage out at 3.3v.

MicroFTX

For MicroFTX USB-Serial Breakout

I'm very happy with the purchase. I had tried to integrate USB into a design a few years back and got stuck integrating the software drivers. The board was extremely easy to integrate and it works flawlessly.
