2003-03-11 -+- Andrew -+- -+- I would like to point out that Cwlinux LCD is a graphical LCD which can also display 4x20 in a 5 1/4 drive bay. Besides, it comes with a mounting bracket and 6 keys keypad. If you add all these options up together, this solution is not as expensive as you think. FYI, usb cw12232 didn't change the original Product ID which is compatible with pl2303. -+- 202.60.251.43 = Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.2.1) Gecko/20021226 Debian/1.2.1-9 2003-03-14 -+- Mike Durller -+- mikedlt@hotmail.com -+-

This is a cool chip... 3M baud maximum speed?! I wonder if this would
be a good choice for a Amateur radio packet modem...

FYI, if you don't have the means to produce the PCB yourself:
the electronic magazin Elektor has featured the same FTDI chip
in its recent german issue. They presented a small double sided board including a RS232 level converter. You could connect this board then
to your original RS232 LCD.... -+- 145.254.134.230 = Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows 98; Win 9x 4.90) 2003-04-29 -+- Inky -+- -+- I bet Cwlinux has a cheaper version of USB LCD provided recently. It looks cool and cheap.... -+- 202.60.251.43 = Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows 98; Win 9x 4.90)
