FTDI Serial TTL-232 USB Cable
Product ID: 70Just about all electronics use TTL serial for debugging, bootloading, programming, serial output, etc. But it's rare for a computer to have a serial port anymore. This is a USB to TTL serial cable, with a FTDI FT232RL usb/serial chip embedded in the head. It has a 6-pin socket at the end with 5V power and ground, as well as RX, TX, RTS and CTS at 3V logic levels....$19.95In stock -
FTDI Friend with Micro USB Port + extras - v3
Product ID: 284Long gone are the days of parallel ports and serial ports. Now the USB port reigns supreme! But USB is hard, and you just want to transfer your every-day serial data from a microcontroller to computer. What now? Enter the FTDI Friend! The FTDI Friend is a tweaked out FTDI FT232RL chip adapter. Sure, like the well-known FTDI cable, it can provide power to your project...$14.7568 in stock -
FTDI Serial TTL-232 USB Type C Cable - 5V Power / 3.3V Logic
Product ID: 4364Just about all electronics use a UART serial port with RX and TX pins for debugging, bootloading, programming, serial output, etc. But it's rare for a computer to have a serial port anymore. Thus, a serial cable is an essential part of any electrical engineer's toolkit. This is a USB C to TTL serial cable with an FTDI FT232R usb/serial chip embedded in the head. It...$19.95In stock -

XBee Module - Series 1 - 1mW with Wire Antenna - XB24-AWI-001
Product ID: 128This is our most popular XBee wireless module: the series 1 802.15.4 protocol 1mW with wire antenna. Its good for point-to-point, multipoint and convertible to a mesh network point. We suggest this module for those starting out as it is the easiest to get going: if there are two XBees in the same area they will automatically 'sync' and pass serial data back and forth...No longer stocked -
XBee Adapter kit - v1.1
Product ID: 126This adapter board is designed to make adding wireless point-to-point or mesh networking easy. I looked at all the XBee adapter boards available and decided to design something better: Onboard 3.3V regulator to cleanly power your XBee, up to 250mA. Level shifting circuitry means that its trivial to connect it to 5V circuitry such as an Arduino without risk of damage....No longer stocked -
XBee Pro Module - Series 1 - 60mW with Wire Antenna - XBP24-AWI-001
Product ID: 964This is the Pro (higher-power) version of the popular XBee! This module is series #1 (802.15.4 protocol) 60mW wireless module, good for point-to-point, multipoint and convertible to a mesh network point. These are much more powerful than the plain XBee modules, great for when you need more range. What we like about the Series 1 modules is that they are so easy to get...No longer stocked -
XBee Module - ZB Series S2C - 2mW with Wire Antenna - XB24CZ7WIT-004
Product ID: 968We now carry the Series 2 XBee "ZigBee" modules. This is the series 2 ZigBee protocol 1mW with wire antenna. Its good for point-to-point, multipoint and mesh networks. This module is a little more difficult to get going than the Series 1 - you must set up a "coordinator" module so they are not as plug-and-play. We suggest this module for those who are following the...No longer stocked -
USB XBee Adapter
Product ID: 247This low cost XBee USB Adapter Board comes in partially assembled kit form and provides a cost-effective solution to interfacing a PC or microcontroller to any XBee or XBee Pro module. The PC connection can be used to configure the XBee Module through Digi's X-CTU software. Works with XBee series 1 and 2 as well as Pro modules By using this adapter board you can...No longer stocked -
XBee Pro Module - ZB Series 2SC - 63mW with Wire Antenna - XBP24CZ7WIT-004
Product ID: 967We now carry the Series 2 XBee "ZigBee" modules. This is the PRO Series 2 ZigBee protocol 63mW with wire antenna. Its good for point-to-point, multipoint and mesh networks. This module is a little more difficult to get going than the Series 1 - you must set up a "coordinator" module so they are not as plug-and-play.
