7Semi SC18IM704 UART to I2C Bus Bridge Breakout Board
The 7Semi SC18IM704 UART to I2C Bus Bridge Breakout Board is a compact and efficient UART to I2C bridge converter designed to simplify communication between UART-based microcontrollers and I2C peripherals. It enables reliable protocol conversion with UART speeds of up to 460.8 kbit/s, while the integrated 256-byte FIFO buffer minimizes data loss during high-speed transfers.
Using an easy-to-implement ASCII message protocol, developers gain precise control over I2C bus sequences, including timing and arbitration. With additional user-programmable GPIO pins, this board is well-suited for embedded systems, industrial control, and IoT applications where UART and I2C interfaces must work together seamlessly.
Features:
- High-Speed Communication: Supports UART baud rates of up to 460.8 kbit/s and a 256-byte FIFO for efficient data processing.
- User-Friendly Interface: Communicates with the host MCU via conventional RX and TX pins, making integration into systems straightforward.
- I2C Protocol Control: The ASCII message protocol provides full control over I2C-bus sequences, including protocol, arbitration, and timing.
- Industrial Applications: Ideal for communication bridges, automation control, and I2C bus support in a variety of industrial configurations.
- Configurable GPIO Pins: Provides multiple user-configurable GPIO pins to meet unique application requirements.
