Communication Interfaces
3.5.1
Serial Port USART2 RS232
The USART2 is buffered with one RS-232 Transceiver ADM3312E (Analog Devices) and is connected to a DB9
connector. A classic implementation RS232 transceiver selection should include double source capability. The
USART2 connector with RTS/CTS handshake signal support is connected to the RS232 transceiver.
Features:
One RS232 transceiver connected to RXD2, TXD2, RTS2, and CTS2
One DB9 male connector
Required resistors and capacitors
Figure 3-10.

3.5.2
Serial Port USART2 RS485
The USART2 is buffered with an Analog Devices ADM3485 RS-485/RS-422 transceiver and is connected to a 3-
point jumper.
Features:
One RS485 transceiver connected to RXD2, TXD2 and RTS2, CTS2
One 3-point connector
Required resistors and capacitors
