Some PL2303HX 5V TTL USB adapter - board USB-STC-ISP GND 0V, RX 4.6V, TX 4.9V, 5V 5V, 3.3V 3.4V - this won't work - the voltage is too high for cubieboard and would probably damage it.

The power led on the board also lights up slightly. When connected to CB/CT and the board is powered off the RX LED is lit. (You can also check the " Cubieboard/TTL" article to use it with a Cubieboard). When connected to CB/CT and the board is powered off the power led on the board is dim (not off completely).

Original Cubietech adapter (board SJ-019 V3.0) or this (board SJ-019 V6.0) white (RX) floating, green (TX) 3.5V, black (gnd) 0V, red (5V) 4.9V.

Sample measured values (against USB shell when connected to USB only): Also adapters with the board embedded inside a case tend to have just wires sticking out at one end, with no documentation regarding which wire is which. The actual available voltage level (1.8/3.3/5/…V) is either switchable, or a fixed arbitrary value depending on adapter design. Unfortunately, many TTL adapters are very poorly documented. These might lower the leakage just enough to enable resetting the board. If you already have a cheap dongle, you could try adding some resistors or diodes between the dongle and the SBC or try a thin USB extension cable. If you want to avoid this power leakage, google for (optically) isolated USB-UART designs. Please note that the cheap dongles will probably leak more power to the SBC, which might cause issues if you want to reset or shut down the board properly.

If you don't know what to buy, consider one that explicitly has 3.3V and 5V printed on the board - it will probably be compatible with both 3.3V TX/RX. They all are supported by mainline Linux. Many cheap chinese dongles come with either of these or a CH340 based design. Popular chips for such modules are the Silicon Labs CP2102 and the Prolific PL2303HX which are both cheap and relatively easy to find. It is much much easier to just buy a 3.3V USB UART module.Ĭurrently, all of the available sunxi hardware requires a 3.3V UART.

If you buy a voltage stepper module ("level shifter") you might get away with attaching it to the serial port of your IBM PC (RS232), but this is rather cumbersome. Even a rather small ESP8266 might run out of power with some USB UART dongles.Ĭurrently, all of the available sunxi hardware requires a 3.3V UART. Note that the UART power wire probably won't deliver enough power for powering a large SBC.

7.3 UART transmits intermittent garbage when clocked with PLL_PERIPH0(1X)ĭo not connect the RED WIRE unless you want to power the device via UART.
