5V to serial convertor

gabriel romi

Hello:
Can I use my ARM CORTEX MO board to contert 5V to serial? will it be reliable? anyone already experienced it? can we interface them directly to a microcontroller without other components?

thanks

    Converting 5V to serial is like converting 10 meters of rope into 100dBA.

    But if you mean if it is possible to convert 5V logic-level serial data into RS232-level serial data, the answer is yes. You can use a MAX232 or similar to convert between the logic levels used by a 5V microcontroller and the logic levels used by the serial port of a PC.
