Hi, If you're thinking of the FTDI ft232, then the little difference is that this chip is an USB-serial bridge, while the MAX232 is just a level translator that requires a plain old serial port. BTW, thanks for the gigantically huge attachement; I guess a 2MB , 3264x1952 jpeg is absolutely required to show your max232 cable. Regards, Sebastien Le 13/09/2011 14:17, labad jala a écrit :

Eheheheh I did the same when I was frustrated because the cable I bought from cellcorner wasn't working! Not that I had any hope to fix it or understand it :(( However, as I have already said the problem was the jack not fitting properly in, if you have the same problem, just cut off a bit of plastic, now it's my favourite cable ;)) -- View this message in context: http://baseband-devel.722152.n3.nabble.com/difference-between-ft232-and-max… Sent from the baseband-devel mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
