Connecting to a PC using FTDI Board

FIGURE 2 : PC CONNECTION USING FTDI
The image above shows the connection of the Booster Pack to the FTDI Board. The
connectors should be aligned carefully considering that it does not have a polarity protection.
The pin-1 of the connectors are marked on the board using a DOT and these should be
aligned while mating.
Note : The mating and unmating force needed for these connectors may be large and may
end up breaking the boards. To prevent this caution should be restrained while unmating
these. Also , it is not recommended to mate the connectors all the way. About 3mm contact
length is good enough for the board as shown in the figure above.
