The TUSB3410UARTPDK is a product design kit (PDK) intended to showcase the TUSB3410 as a compact USB to serial interface bridge. The TUSB3410 provides bridging between a USB port and an enhanced UART serial port. It contains all the necessary logic to communicate with the host computer using the USB bus. The TUSB3410 interfaces full speed (12Mbps) USB to a high speed UART. The evaluation module in the kit adds an RS232 driver to interface to standard serial port devices. Included in the TUSB3410 EVM design are an I2C serial EEPROM, a 12MHz crystal, and a 5V to 3V low dropout voltage regulator. The TUSB3410UARTPDK is primarily intended for evaluation with the Windows version of the VCP driver. The TUSB3410UART EVM is designed for use with a personal computer running a USB enabled operating system. The PC should be compliant with the USB 1.1 or 2.0 specifications. This implies that the BIOS, chipsets, and operating system are all USB specification compliant.
