Convertidor SBUS a RS232 RS232 a SBUS

SBUS → RS232 / RS232 → SBUS Converter Board

For UAV, UGV, USV Telemetry & Long-Range Remote Control Systems

Descripción general

Esta SBUS to RS232 or RS232 to SBUS directional converter board es un customized professional solution designed for unmanned systems such as Uavs, en UGV, USVs, and robotic platforms.
It enables reliable conversion between non-standard SBUS remote control signals y standard serial communication protocols (RS232 or UART-compatible serial).

The module fully solves the long-standing problem of SBUS incompatibility with computers, MCUs, telemetry radios, and network devices, making SBUS data directly usable as a standard serial interface without requiring users to handle complex protocol parsing.

This product is widely used in:

• Long-range drone remote control

• Wireless telemetry extension

• Ground robot control

• Remote vehicle networking

• Industrial automation with RC input

Technology Highlights

Advanced Protocol Support (Upgraded Version)

• Fully supports SBUS2 protocol

• Backward compatible with SBUS

• Compatible con WBUS (SkyRC / Tiandi Fei)

• Compatible con IBUS (FlySky)

This means even the latest SBUS2 receivers can be decoded correctly, ensuring long-term compatibility.

Why SBUS Cannot Be Used Directly

SBUS is a digital control protocol originally developed by Futaba.
Although it looks similar to UART, it is not a standard serial protocol.

SBUS Characteristics:

• Baud rate: 100 kbps

• Data format: 1 start bit, 2 stop bits, paridad uniforme

• Inverted logic level

• Packed bit-level channel data (11 bits per channel)

Because of this:

• Most MCUs and computers cannot read SBUS directly

• Even if 100k baud is supported, error rates are extremely high

• No built-in checksum in standard SBUS

• Not suitable for long-distance wired or wireless transmission

---

What Our Module Does

Our converter module:

• Converts SBUS electrical levels → standard logic levels

• Converts non-standard SBUS frames → standard serial data

• Decodes SBUS into directly usable integer channel values

• Optionally re-encodes data back into SBUS format

After conversion, SBUS can be treated like a normal serial port, allowing developers to focus on application logic instead of protocol complexity.

Product Variants & Functional Options

1. 100k Transparent Transmission Version (Not Recommended)

• Outputs raw SBUS format (100k baud, 2 stop bits, paridad uniforme)

• Limited compatibility

• High risk of packet loss

• Recomendado only for special testing purposes

---

2. Adjustable Baud Rate Version (Highly Recommended)

• Converts SBUS to standard serial baud rates:

  • 9600

  • 38400

  • 57600

  • 115200

• Standard format:

  • 1 start bit

  • 1 detener un poco

  • No parity

• Much lower error rate

• Compatible with most MCUs, radios, and computers

---

3. Adjustable Baud Rate + Adjustable Frame Rate

SBUS frames:

• 25 bytes per frame

• Default frame interval: 7–15 ms

Many telemetry radios, wired links, and wireless networks cannot handle such high frame rates, causing:

• Buffer overflow

• Packet loss

• System freeze

Our module allows frame interval adjustment:

• Adjustable from 20 ms to 500 Sra

• 14 selectable levels

• Optimizado para:

  • Long-range telemetry radios

  • 4sol / LTE / IP networks

  • Wireless bridges

---

4. Adjustable Baud Rate + Integrated SBUS Encode / Descodificar

Without Encoding:

• Users must manually pack 16 channels into SBUS

• Requires:

  • Bit shifting

  • Frame timing control

  • Packet loss detection

  • Complex validation

• High CPU usage

• Risk of:

  • Control jitter

  • Signal instability

  • UAV loss of control

With Integrated Encode / Descodificar (Recomendado):

• Module handles:

  • SBUS decoding

  • Channel extraction

  • SBUS re-encoding

• Adds checksum mechanism (XOR)

• Ensures data integrity over:

  • Wireless links

  • Long-distance cables

  • Network transmission

• Greatly improves system safety

5. Ultimate Version

Adjustable Baud Rate + Adjustable Frame Rate + Integrated Encode/Decode

This is the most complete solution, combining:

• Protocol conversion

• Frame rate control

• Data integrity protection

• Minimal development effort

Ideal para:

• Professional UAV systems

• Industrial unmanned platforms

• Commercial long-range applications

---

Output Data Format (Decoded Version)

Standard SBUS (25 bytes)

• No checksum

• Bit-packed data

• Not human-readable

Our Decoded Output (35 bytes)

• Frame header

• 16 channels × 2 bytes (integer format)

• Flags byte

• XOR checksum

Each channel value:

• Rango: 0–2047

• High byte first, low byte second

• Directly usable by MCU or PC software
