6.3.  UART Signals (P2, J1)

An RS232 transceiver circuit and DB9 connector (P2) are provided on the evaluation board to connect the CP2104
virtual serial port to external serial devices. See Table 3 for the RS232 P2 pin descriptions. The J1 connector is
provided to facilitate direct access to the CP2104’s UART signals. Shorting blocks on J1 are required to connect
the UART signals to P2. See Table 4 for J1 pin descriptions.

6.4.  Power Connector (J4)

This header (J4) is included on the evaluation board to provide several power options. The following describes the
function of each pin:



Pins 1–2: Connects CP2104 VIO input (Pin 5) to CP2104 VDD (Pin 6). Remove the shorting block to power 

VIO from an external source.



Pins 3–4: Connects the main +3 V net to the CP2104 VDD (Pin 6). The main +3 V net powers the other 

components (four green LEDs and RS232 Sipex Part) on the evaluation board.
