I will probably connect a diode from the AVR Vdd to the /RST on the CP210X, so that the CP210X is held in reset until the AVR is powered. I intend to experiment by using resistors in the TXD and RXD lines so that I can monitor current drawn. If the CP210x receives more than -0.3 V as its power source, the CP210x will be damaged.
When interfacing the CP210x with the MCU, you will have to verify that the CP210x will never receive a negative power source. These devices can also interface to a host using the direct access driver.
#What is cp210x usb to uart bridge drivers#
We cannot say how the MCU will react to driven logic highs on the CP210x pins, however you will have to consult the datasheet for the MCU. The CP210x USB to UART Bridge Virtual COM Port (VCP) drivers are required for device operation as a Virtual COM Port to facilitate host communication with CP210x products. We have installed Silicon Labs CP210X USB to UART Bridge (Driver Version 6.0.0.0) driver in the system working in Windows 10 64 bit, for some reasons we dont want to use the latest driver(10.). Thus, these pins will not source enough current for the MCU to attempt to power itself. If the reverse is true, the CP210x can be held in reset, which will cause all of the UART pins to be open drain and float high with the weak pull-ups. If you have feedback for Chocolatey, please contact the Google Group. The MCU will effectively see the CP210x pins as open circuits. This discussion is only about CP210x USB to UART Bridge VCP Drivers Windows 10 Universal (Install) and the CP210x USB to UART Bridge VCP Drivers Windows 10 Universal (Install) package. If the MCU is on and the CP210x is off, then the CP210x will not attempt to power itself from any UART lines that are logic high and draw a lot of current from the MCU. What is USB to UART driver The CP210x USB to UART Bridge Virtual COM Port (VCP) drivers are required for device operation as a Virtual COM Port to facilitate host communication with CP210x products. In this case, both of the instances you've described below can occur: the MCU is powered when the CP210x is not, or the CP210x is powered when the MCU is off. However, it is not always possible to power both the CP210x and the other device from the same source (if you want to use the microcontroller for something other than USB, for example). If both chips are bus powered, we recommend gating the power for the other device with SUSPEND or /SUSPEND, so the device is not drawing power from the bus when the CP210x is not enumerated. In other words, both parts should be powered either from the USB bus or from the "self-powered" configuration. Quote: In most cases, we recommend powering both the CP210x and the device it's interfacing with from the same power source.
