README
README.mdUART 3.3V Framework Expansion Card
This Framework laptop expansion card will show up on your system as a serial device and allow for a non-isolated serial UART communication up to 1 Mbaud baud rate.
Please note that this card is not using RS-232 but 3.3V TTL.
UART Pinout
To connect to this board, one has to use a 4-pin JST XH connector. The following table represents the pinout, pin 1 being on the left as looking into the expansion card.
| # | Ref | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 2 | GND | Ground connection |
| 1 | RXD | Receive (3.3V TTL) |
| 3 | TXD | Transmit (3.3V TTL) |
| 4 | 3V3 | 3.3V 400mA (typical) output |
Using 22 AWG wire 0.25 mm² is recommended.
Supported Speeds
This board employs the FT232R as its UART chip, and consequently, it supports all the baud rates this chip can handle. The table below lists the standard baud rates.

| 1,000,000 | 1,000,000 | 0.00% | 3.000 |
While chip does support baud rates up to 3 Mbaud, granularity of such rates is severely limited.

Questions
How big is the Uart33FEC PCB?
It measures 24 × 27.9 mm and has 2 copper layers, 0.8 mm thick.
What parts does the Uart33FEC use?
30 parts, built around the FT230XS-R, AP22652W6, AZ1117IH and B4B-XH-A. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.
Where can I download the Uart33FEC KiCad files?
From the medo64/Uart33FEC repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is src/Uart33FEC.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Uart33FEC design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the MIT licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
