The two most popular USB to RS232 converters are based on either “CH340G” chip or the “PL2303” chip. Below are the drivers (latest as on 02-March-2016) for both. PL2303 CH340G While purchasing, check if the module has the DTR pin or not. It is not a necessity but will be easy to program the Arduino… Continue reading USB To RS232 convertor drivers

Arduino – Communicate With Server – Part 3 – Web Based Panel
This is the code for the web based panel (web based UI) that will display the data received from arduino or can send some command to the Arduino All communications are done through a server (web server) The frontend code <?php date_default_timezone_set(“Asia/Kolkata”); $conn = mysql_connect(“localhost”,”root”,”xxxxxxxxxx”); if(!$conn) { echo “Error: failed to connect DB”; … Continue reading Arduino – Communicate With Server – Part 3 – Web Based Panel
Arduino – Communicate With Server – Part 2 – Server Code for Saving Data
This article shows the server side code for a server which is gathering or sending data by polling method to an Arduino device. This method or code is putting less load on the server (compared to socket) but data transmission is slower than socket. <?php date_default_timezone_set(“Asia/Kolkata”); $conn = mysql_connect(“localhost”,”root”,”**********”); if(!$conn) { echo “Error: failed… Continue reading Arduino – Communicate With Server – Part 2 – Server Code for Saving Data
