SDM-USB-QS-S

Controllers Overview

The SDM-USB-QS-S is a USB to UART bridge module manufactured by TE Connectivity Linx. It operates within the QS series and supports USB 2.0 standards for data communication. The module functions as an integrated controller, converting USB signals to UART interface protocols. It requires a supply voltage ranging from 4.35V to 5.25V and draws a typical supply current of 26mA. Designed for surface mount applications, it is housed in a 16-SMD module package. The component is rated for operation at temperatures between 0°C and 70°C.

Controllers Feature Summary

• Integrates USB 2.0 protocol handling with UART interface conversion capabilities
• Provides a compact surface-mount solution for embedded connectivity
• Operates on standard 5V logic levels with defined power consumption limits

Controllers Applications

• Embedded systems requiring serial communication over USB
• Industrial control modules needing UART-to-USB bridging
• IoT device development platforms

Controllers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer part number against official TE Connectivity Linx documentation before procurement. Confirm that the 16-SMD package dimensions and pinout match the target PCB layout requirements. Ensure the operating temperature range of 0°C to 70°C aligns with the environmental conditions of the intended application. Cross-reference the supply voltage specifications to guarantee compatibility with the system power rail.

Controllers Selection Notes

Select this module when a dedicated USB-to-UART bridge is required in a space-constrained design. The 16-SMD form factor suits automated surface-mount assembly processes. Consider the 26mA current draw when calculating total system power budgets. Verify that the host system supports USB 2.0 signaling standards to ensure proper enumeration and data transfer rates.

Controllers Part Context

This component belongs to the SDM-USB product family from TE Connectivity Linx, which specializes in industrial-grade connectivity solutions. The QS series designation indicates its specific packaging and functional grouping within the broader portfolio. It serves as a direct interface solution for integrating legacy UART peripherals with modern USB hosts without requiring external discrete controllers.
