      Hi,

      I wanted to know which cable can be used to communicate with a custom L01 circuit. As per the drawing there are only two pins available for communication, Pin 7 and Pin 8. Do i need a FDTI cable of some sort ?

      Cheers

        @omer Yes. It is a serial UART interface with RX,TX and GND at 3.3V level, 115200 baud. You will need a FTDI adapter or the like.

          Thanks Robert. A typical FTDI cable has CTS and DTR pins aa well. Need to worry about these ?

            @omer No, you can ignore these. What's important is the 3.3V logic level.
