CH343P Type-C to UART TTL Serial Converter Module

High-speed USB-to-Serial Bridge – Next-Gen Replacement for CH340

Overview

The CH343P is a next-generation USB bus conversion chip that provides a high-speed asynchronous serial port via a modern Type-C interface. Compatible with USB V2.0, this module enables seamless serial communication for embedded systems, microcontroller debugging, and legacy peripheral upgrades. With built-in firmware and support for automatic baud rate detection up to 6Mbps, it delivers reliable performance without the need for external crystals or oscillators.

Key Features

  • • Type-C Full Speed Interface – Compatible with USB V2.0, plug-and-play simplicity
  • • High-Speed Serial – Supports baud rates from 50bps to 6Mbps with automatic detection at 115200bps and below
  • • Flexible Voltage Levels – Serial I/O operates at 1.8V, 2.5V, 3.3V, or 5V; USB side accepts 5V or 3.3V
  • • Built-in Power-On Reset & Clock – No external crystal oscillator required
  • • MODEM Control Signals – Full support for RTS, DTR, DCD, RI, DSR, and CTS
  • • Hardware Flow Control – CTS/RTS auto-flow control for reliable data transfer
  • • Half-Duplex with TNOW – Supports RS485 switching via TNOW signal
  • • RS232 Compatible – External level converter enables RS232 interface
  • • Onboard EEPROM (CH343P) – Configurable VID, PID, and max current parameters
  • • Unique USB Serial Number – Embedded chip ID for easy device identification
  • • Driver Support – Built-in CDC drivers on modern OS; optional high-speed VCP vendor drivers
  • • Windows Compatible – Emulates standard serial port, no modification needed for existing applications
  • • Data Bit Options – 5, 6, 7, or 8 data bits with odd, even, mark, space, or no parity
  • • RoHS Compliant – Lead-free packages (SOP16, ESSOP10, QFN16)
