USB-Cerial Concerns

I would like to purchase the USB Cerial linked here: USB-Cereal | Crowd Supply

But I have concerns that how the CP2102N is wired in won’t work for my use case, please quickly check:

I will purchase it for my entire team if this is solved. Thanks!

Hi @papicurri

After consulting the schematic, it looks like the board is missing the 10k Ohm resistor between the Serial port’s TXD and GND that’s required for break signaling, per the datasheet (section 4.2.2). Without it, the chip can’t pull TXD low to generate a break condition, so unfortunately this variant can’t currently be used for that use case.

Thank you! That’s sad, just for one resistor :frowning:
