We can now set RX/TX LEDs on our CP2102N usb serial boards
from Adafruit Industries · host Adafruit Industries
We use the cp2104 usb-serial converter in a lot of our designs - but it's hard to get during the shortage(s). The cp2102n is available, and it's a clooooose replacement but theres a few small hardware changes needed and the internal eeprom is different. So, if you just spent 2 days trying to figure out why your cp2104 eeprom writing code isnt working and you were dreading having to rewrite the libusb vendor calls, good news! This pr to a fork of a program compiled cleanly and did the job a treat on our raspberry pi tester. https://github.com/irrwisch1/cp210x-cfg/pull/1 whew :) #adafruit #CP2102N Visit the Adafruit shop online - http://www.adafruit.com ----------------------------------------- LIVE CHAT IS HERE! http://adafru.it/discord Adafruit on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/adafruit Subscribe to Adafruit on YouTube: http://adafru.it/subscribe New tutorials on the Adafruit Learning System: http://learn.adafruit.com/ -----------------------------------------
