USB UART Analyzer

Description:

This is a UART to USB analyzer that performs two important debug tasks. First, you can monitor the full-duplex signals between two devices talking UART.  Second, you can use the board to setup communication between a PC and a UART device.  Another important enhancement this board has it that it can operate on UART interface voltage levels down to 1.8V.  That means if your debug interface is 5.0V, 3.3V, or 1.8V, this board design is for you.
