Xbee USB Adapter (FTDI Ready)
The upgraded DFRobot Xbee USB adapter is designed for the XBee module configuration parameters to facilitate using or to work as a FTDI writer. The new version of Xbee USB adapter is also welded with the female pin for FTDI so that users can directly use the adapter as a FTDI program writer, such as Arduino FIO/pro/mini、lilypad Arduino and so on. It’s a must-have for interactive electronic installations and projects.
The adapter allows the PC to configure XBee / Bluetooth module and the controller / development board for wireless data transmission via USB cable. You can upload your program through the wireless controller module, or conduct wireless real-time data transmission. The adapter uses a FTDI232 USB-UART converter chip to ensure stable and reliable data transmission.
Version Upgrade: New Version has replaced MiniUSB port with Micro USB port.
