Introduction
1.1 Functional Description
The DB9-USB-RS232 modules are designed to directly replace an existing DB9, the industry accepted name for a DE9 connector, (male or female) RS232 connection with a drop-in USB replacement connection. The modules will replace (pin-for-pin) a male or female DB9 RS232 connector with a USB mini-B connector. The application PCB containing the existing DB9 RS232 connector does not require any modification, only the replacement of the D-type connector with the appropriate DB9-USB-RS232 module. A male DB9 should be replaced by a male DB9-USB-RS232-M and a female DB9 should be replaced by a female DB9-USB-RS232-F. The modules contain all necessary electronics to convert between USB and RS232. The purposes of the modules is to provide a simple method of adapting legacy serial devices with RS232 interfaces to modern USB ports by replacing the DB9 connector with this miniaturised module which closely resembles a DB9 connector. This is accomplished by incorporating the industry standard FTDI FT232R USB-Serial Bridge IC plus the required level shifters inside the module.
Figure 1.1 - DB9-USB-RS232
The module uses a standard USB-MINI-B connector for connection to an upstream host or hub port. RS232-level signals, including modem handshake signals, can transmit data at rates up to 1 Mega Baud. The DB9-USB-RS232 module requires USB device drivers, available free from www.ftdichip.com, which are used to make the DB9-USB-RS232 appear as a Virtual COM Port (VCP). This allows existing serial communications software, such as HyperTerminal, to exchange data through the DB9-USB-RS232 to a legacy RS232 peripheral device.
Note: The connector is referred as a DB9 connector since DE9 is often referred to by this name.

2.1.2 Replacing an RS232 DB9 MALE (DTE defined) Connector
The DB9-USB-RS232-M can be used to replace a male DB9 connector used for transmitting RS232 protocol. With the DB9-USB-RS232-M in place instead of the standard USB connector a USB bridge is created, this allow the application to communicate with other devices via USB. Installing the DB9-USBRS232-M is simple. Simply replace the male DB9 connector with the DB9-USB-RS232-M connector (same PCB footprint), install drivers and the device is ready to use. Table 2.2 gives the pin out description of each pad of an RS232 footprint. Figure 2.2 gives a description of the connections between the DB9-USB-RS232-M and the footprint of a male DB9 module.

Note 1: The DB9-USB-RS232-M is electrically configured to be a DTE (Data Terminating Equipment) device
with a null-modem wiring. The null-modem wiring allows DTE to DTE communications between the DB9USB-RS232-M and a standard DB9 male application board. However a DTE device is defined to have 5 inputs and 3 outputs, where a DCE (Data Communications Equipment) is defined to have 3 inputs and 5 outputs as in the case of the female DB9 application boards. This leads to a conflict in an DTE to DTE connection application, This conflict is that there are more inputs to a connected USB-converter device than there are outputs from the application board (and more inputs to the application board than there are outputs of the USB converter). This conflict occurs on the DCD and RI connections and as such they cannot be used. This issue is very common when translating RS232 to USB from a DTE perspective. Additional information showing DTE and DCE wiring is given in Appendix B.
Figure 2.1 illustrates these connections from a PCB footprint point of view. Figure 2.2 Illustrates the connection made to an example PCB.

Troubleshooting
Ensure the latest device driver is in use. See www.ftdichip.com If USB devices other than FTDI chips are installed in the system, then check with all manufacturers of these devices for the latest device drivers. Section 3 details driver installation. If the user continues to have driver installation isues, then please refer to the FTDI installation guides http://ftdichip.com/Documents/InstallGuides.htm for additional details. Common Windows Device Driver Troubles: DEVICE TIMES OUT: The default settings of the device driver assume typical data transfers of hundreds to thousands or more bytes at a given time. Some applications, such as a GPS device, only send data in short packets, often only a few bytes. If this is the case, it may be necessary to adjust the driver buffer size and/or latency timer to smaller values. These values can be adjusted through the Advanced driver options. The buffer size can be reduced to 64 bytes. The latency timer can be set as low as 2ms. A setting of 1ms will cause unnecessary USB traffic and could adversely affect data transmission. Advanced driver options are described in http://www.ftdichip.com/Documents/AppNotes/AN_107_AdvancedDriverOptions_AN_000073.pdf
ERRATIC MOUSE POINTER: The device driver defaults to query an attached device to find out whether it is a mouse or modem, consistent with native COM port operation. Some RS232 peripherals constantly send short packets of data, causing the host system to "think" a mouse or modem has been attached. These short packets will interfere with normal mouse operation causing the pointer to jump around the screen. If this happens, disconnect the RS232 device and uncheck the Serial Enumerator option, also found on the Advanced driver options.
COM PORT IN USE: Windows keeps track of all COM port assignments. If multiple FTDIChip products have been connected to a single system, the COM port number will increase, even if the other devices are not attached. If the higher COM port assignments are not acceptable for the application, known unused COM port numbers should be uninstalled according to the FTDI installation guide: http://ftdichip.com/Documents/InstallGuides.htm.

Appendix B - DCE and DTE Wire Configurations
This section is included for reference when designing a PCB for a DB9-USB-RS232 module; here some of the subtle details of DTE and DCE wire configurations will be outlined.
B.1 Wire Configuration for the Male and Female Modules
When designing a PCB for the DB9-USB-RS232 module consideration should be given to Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) and Data Communication Equipment (DCE) connection standards. The DB9-USB-RS232 modules are designed as a DTE device. When a DTE devices is being connected to the DB9-USB-RS232 a "null-modem" wiring is used, when the DB9-USB-RS232 is connected to a DCE a "straight through" wiring is used. The expressions "null-modem" and "straight through" are explained in the next subsection. The male DB9-USB-RS232-M module is designed to replace a male DB9 connector of a DTE device (according to TIA standards Male DB9 connectors are to be used only with wiring DTE to UART). The female DB9-USB-RS232-F module is designed to replace a female DB9 connector of a DCE device (according to TIA standards Female DB9 connectors are to be used only with wiring DCE to UART).
B.1.1 RS232 Wiring
RS232 cables have followed a standard 9-pin configuration on a D-sub connector since the mid 1980s. The DB9-USB-RS232-M modules are DTE devices. To connect a DB9-USB-RS232 module to a DCE device, a "straight-through" wiring scheme, as described in Table B.1, needs to be used.
DTE Pin Number 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
Signal Name DCD = Data Carrier Detect RXD = Receive Data TXD = Transmit Data DTR = Data Terminal Ready GND = RS232 signal ground DSR = Data Set Ready RTS = Request To Send CTS = Clear To Send RI = Ring Indicator
DCE Pin Number 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
Table B.1 - RS232 DTE to DCE connection with straight-through wiring
To connect a DB9-USB-RS232 module to a DCE device, a "null-modem" wiring scheme, as described in Table B.2 needs to be used.

DTE Pin Number 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
Signal Name RXD = Receive Data TXD = Transmit Data DTR = Data Terminal Ready GND = RS232 signal ground DSR = Data Set Ready RTS = Request To Send CTS = Clear To Send
DTE Pin Number 3 2 6 5 4 8 7
Table B.2 - RS232 DTE to DTE connection with null-modem wiring
Note that the DB9-USB-RS232-M is not a DB9-USB-RS232-F with its pins latterly inverted; there is a "null-modem" wiring configuration present in the DB9-USB-RS232-M module. This means that a DB9USB-RS232-M is not pin compatible with a female footprint when placed on the underneath side of the board.
