Uno Style RS-232 Shield - DIY Kit

Maus-Tec DIY kits and tinker modules are the perfect start to a new project, or addition to a current project. Each module is available as a parts kit or fully assembled and ready to go, please indicate your preference in the shopping cart notes! The RS-232 Shield uses the popular MAX232 line driver and receiver to provide a proper serial interface with your Arduino Uno compatible development board. The built-in 9-pin Serial port readily interfaces with traditional serial hardware, allowing you to connect your Arduino to computer terminals, modems, precision test equipment, and other RS-232-based equipment. This shield is available as either a Terminal or Modem device, and each is available with the placement of the port on either the front or back of the Arduino for convenience. • DTE (Terminal) devices are suitable as hosts for connecting to modems, printers, and other devices. • DCE (Modem) devices are suitable as peripherals, connecting to terminals or computers.
