4. Typical Applications

The microUSB (μUSB-MB5) is designed to accommodate many applications. Its small size and convenient form

factor are perfect for adding micro USB functionality to embedded applications.

The microUSB makes an easy USB-Serial interface, so you can easily create USB to RS-232 converters, USB to

RS-422/RS-485 converters, upgrade legacy RS232 devices, make PDA and cellphone USB interface cables,

barcode readers, POS terminals, etc.

In any application, make sure the TX and RX lines from the μUSB are crossed over to the attached peripheral.

That is, the TX from the μUSB connects to the RX of the target and the RX from the μUSB connects to the TX of

the target device.

Note: the TX and RX signal levels are between 0 Volts and 3.3 Volts.

The microUSB is designed to have a compact footprint, and be compatible with prototyping such as plugging it

directly into a breadboard.
