3.2 하드웨어 연결
- PC에 연결: Use the provided USB-B cable to connect the converter to a USB port on your computer. The PWR indicator LED should light up, indicating power.
- Select Operating Voltage: Use the onboard toggle switch (labeled 5V/3V3) to select the appropriate operating voltage (3.3V or 5V) for your target device. Ensure this matches the voltage requirements of the device you are connecting to prevent damage.
- 작동 모드 선택: Configure the DIP switches (S1, S2) on the back of the device to select the desired communication mode. Refer to the table below for mode configurations:
Table 3.1: Operating Mode Selection Mode (M0-M3) S2 S1 기능 M0 끄다 끄다 UART0 + UART1 M1 끄다 ON UART1 + I2C + SPI M2 ON 끄다 UART1 + I2C + SPI M3 ON ON UART1 + JTAG - 대상 장치에 연결: Use the appropriate jumper wires to connect the converter's interface pins (UART0, UART1, I2C, SPI, JTAG) to your target device according to the selected mode. Pay close attention to pin assignments (VCC, GND, TXD, RXD, SCL, SDA, SCK, MISO, MOSI, CS, TDI, TDO, TCK, TMS, TRST).

4. 사용 설명서
Once the hardware is connected and drivers are installed, you can begin using the converter for communication with your target device.
4.1개의 표시등
The converter features several indicator lights to provide feedback on its status:
- PWR : Power indicator, lights up when the USB is connected and voltage가 감지되었습니다.
- RXD1: UART1 receiving indicator, lights up when the device sends data back.
- TXD1: UART1 sending indicator, lights up when the USB port sends data.
- RXD0: UART0 receiving indicator, lights up when the device sends data back.
- TXD0: UART0 sending indicator, lights up when the USB port sends data.
4.2 Using UART Interfaces
In M0 mode (UART0 + UART1), both UART channels are active. Use a serial terminal program on your computer to communicate. Configure the baud rate, data bits, parity, and stop bits to match your target device. The converter supports baud rates up to 9Mbps with hardware flow control (CTS/RTS).
4.3 Using I2C and SPI Interfaces
In M1 or M2 mode (UART1 + I2C + SPI), you can utilize the I2C and SPI interfaces. Dedicated software tools or custom scripts are typically used to interact with I2C EEPROMs, OLEDs, sensors, or SPI slave devices. The SPI interface provides two chip select pins (CS0, CS1) for controlling multiple slave devices.
4.4 Using JTAG 인터페이스
In M3 mode (UART1 + JTAG), the JTAG interface is enabled. This is primarily used for debugging and testing microcontrollers or FPGAs. Tools like OpenOCD can be used in conjunction with the JTAG interface. Users should verify compatibility and functionality with their specific JTAG debugging setup.

- Ensure the USB cable is securely connected to both the converter and the computer.
- 다른 USB 포트나 USB 케이블을 사용해 보세요.
- Verify your computer's USB port is functional.
- 통신 실패:
- 드라이버 문제: Reinstall the latest drivers from the waveshare website. For Linux, ensure kernel modules are correctly loaded and user-space software is properly configured. Some users have reported challenges with Linux driver support and Python sample code; consult community forums or waveshare support for updated resources.
- Incorrect Mode Selection: Double-check the DIP switch settings (S1, S2) to ensure the correct operating mode (M0-M3) is selected for your application.
- 잘못된 권tage 레벨: Verify the 3.3V/5V toggle switch is set to match your target device's voltage.
- 잘못된 배선: 조심스럽게 다시view your connections between the converter and the target device. Ensure VCC, GND, TXD, RXD, and other protocol-specific pins are correctly matched.
- Baud Rate Mismatch (UART): Confirm that the baud rate in your serial terminal software matches the baud rate of your target device.
- 표시등: Observe the RXD/TXD indicator lights. If they are not blinking during data transmission, it indicates a lack of communication.
- Device Not Recognized by OS:
- Check Device Manager (Windows) or `lsusb`/`dmesg` (Linux) to see if the device is detected.
- Ensure drivers are correctly installed and the device is not showing any errors.
