Roving Networks RN-SRL USB to 3V & 5V Serial UART Dongles & TTL Bridge Cables
Roving Networks RN-SRL USB to 3V & 5V Serial UART Dongles are USB-to-Serial TTL bridge board modules (PCB Assembly) designed to accommodate a quick and easy means to interconnect to devices having TTL level serial interfaces which require conversion to USB. The on-board bridge controller is either the PROLIFIC 64-bit PL2303HXD (3V) or FTDI's FT232R (5V) USB-to-Serial UART device which controls the relevant USB signal and protocol requirements. The Roving Networks RN-SRL USB to 3V & 5V Serial UART Dongles are each comprised of 2 main components, a USB type-A connector as the interface to the outside world, and small form factor PCB requiring soldered-wire connections to the mating device(s). The RoHS compliant PCB assembly is configured with a fixed TTL output level of +3.3V or +5V. Roving Networks RN-SRL USB-to-Serial TTL Bridge Cables are available in black and translucent overmold USB-A male connectors, having connection-ready 6 conductor tinned-leads at the opposite end. Each cable is made up to a 6 foot length (1.8m), with a heat-shrink finish treatment.
Roving Networks RN-174 WiFly GSX Super Modules & Development Kit
Roving Networks RN-174 WiFly GSX Super Modules are field ready, Wi-Fi Alliance certified 802.11 b/g prototyping platforms. These boards have the flexibility to connect directly to a standard RS232 interface or through the TTL UART interface to embedded processors. The Roving Networks RN-174 WiFly GSX Super Modules each contain a battery boost circuit which makes it possible to power the boards using two AA batteries (input voltage can go down to down to 2.0V DC when using the battery boost circuit). This makes the RN-174 perfect for battery-powered applications such as sensors, asset tracking, etc. The status LEDs and jumpers enable rapid prototyping and integrating into existing systems.
Roving Networks RN-174 WiFly GSX Super Modules are based on the Roving Networks RN-171 WiFly-GSX module. The WiFly GSX module incorporates a 2.4GHz radio, processor, full TCP/IP stack, real-time clock, FTP, DHCP, DNS, and HTML client protocols. These modules support adhoc and enterprise networking. Additionally, the analog sensor interface provides direct connections to send temperature, acceleration, and other analog data without requiring an external microprocessor. The WiFly GSX module is programmed and controlled with a simple ASCII command language. Once the WiFly GSX is setup it can automatically scan to find an access point, associate, authenticate, and connect over any Wi-Fi network. The Roving Networks RN-174 WiFly GSX Super Modules Development Kit is also available.
Roving Networks RN-370 WiFly Serial Adapter
The Roving Networks RN-370 WiFly Serial Adapter supports RS-232 interfaces. When connected to a remote host, the Roving Networks WiFly Serial Adapter transfers data read or written to the serial interface to a remote application such as an iPhone app, data logger, or PC control console. The WiFly Serial Adapter transfers data over a reliable TCP/IP socket. 802.11 b/g infrastructure or adhoc networking has the advantage of using existing, low cost wireless connectivity and being able to connect remotely to any WiFly serial adapter in the world. This Roving Networks device is powered by two AAA batteries, an external AC to 5VDC power brick, or 5VDC on pin 9 of the DB9 connector. The WiFly Serial Adapter will run for up to 8 hours while connected over WiFi on a fully charged set of batteries. The serial adapter can control and monitor hundreds of WiFi serial adapters remotely distributed across a building LAN or campus WAN.
Roving Networks RN-41-SM Class 1 Bluetooth® Socket Module
The Roving Networks RN-41-SM Class 1 Bluetooth® Socket Module is a through hole, low power module that supports SPP/DUN and HCI Bluetooth interface protocols, is simple to design in, and is fully certified. The Roving Networks RN-41-SM Class 1 Bluetooth Socket Module uses a high performance on-chip antenna and supports Bluetooth Enhanced Data Rate (EDR) to deliver up to 3 Mbps data rate for distances to 100 meters. The RN-41-SM Bluetooth Socket Module saves time and cost by allowing designers to add Bluetooth wireless capability to existing products without significantly redesigning their application. This Roving Networks module is ideal for cable replacement, barcode scanners, measurement/monitoring systems, industrial sensors/controls, medical devices, and asset tracking.
