Aus JW Tech Wiki

Documentation notice: This technical documentation was independently rewritten from an archived supplier source. Check technical details and commands against the product version and manufacturer documentation before use.

Summary

The 2-Channel Isolated RS232 Expansion HAT connects two isolated RS232 devices to a Raspberry Pi via SPI. It uses SC16IS752 and SP3232, includes TVS protection, and is suitable for industrial automation.

Technical overview

  • Uses the standard Raspberry Pi 40-pin GPIO header and fits common Raspberry Pi boards.
  • Uses the SC16IS752 (SPI-to-UART) and SP3232 (RS232 transceiver) chip combination.
  • Transfers data at rates from 300 to 921600 bps over an SPI interface.
  • Provides power isolation, ADI magnetic coupler, and TVS diodes for surge protection.
  • Indicates operating state via onboard LEDs for power and transmit/receive status.
  • Breaks out the SPI control pins (VCC, GND, SCLK, MOSI, MISO, CS, IRQ) as headers for external control boards.

Commands and examples – verify before use:  

sudo nano /boot/config.txt
dtoverlay=sc16is752-spi1,int_pin=24
sudo reboot
ls /dev
sudo apt-get install wiringpi
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install python-pip
sudo pip install RPi.GPIO
sudo apt-get install python-serial

Notes and version constraints

  • The exact path structure of example code may vary by OS version; local verification required.
  • Modifying config.txt requires a reboot; on Ubuntu the file is located under /boot/firmware instead of /boot.
  • Simultaneous use with the 2-Channel RS485 HAT is not supported according to the source.
  • Stacking multiple 2-Channel RS232 HATs on a single Raspberry Pi is not supported; a maximum of four channels is possible.
  • For communication issues, check flow control, wiring, parity, and baud rate settings.
