Prop Plug for Propeller and Basic Stamp (USB-to-Serial)
The Prop Plug provides a USB-to-serial port connection for microcontroller programming and communication. This tiny device is capable of asynchronous communication at up to 3 M baud with both 3.3V and 5V devices such as the Propeller and BASIC Stamp. The Prop Plug slips onto a 4-pin, 0.1" spaced header, allowing both PCBs and breadboards to provide in-circuit programming capability. Use the Prop Clip if programming with fewer components via a PCB edge connector is desired.
Features:
USB to serial port conversion
Capable of asynchronous communication up to 3 M baud
