As some might know there are several FTDI chip based usb to serial converter breakout boards. Sparkfun produced several of them through time , and recently Adafruit launched a new product called \u00a0\u201dFTDI friend\u201d. Those are the well known ones. \u00a0But if you have an Arduino board with usb connectivity ( like Duemilanove ) , you don\u2019t need to buy any of those for basic usb to serial converting tasks. If you have a Seeeduino, you are luckier!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
