Руководство по преобразователю USB в SBUS или SBUS в USB | Конфигурация адаптера RC БПЛА

Введение

The Bidirectional USB to SBUS / SBUS to USB Converter is a professional interface module designed for RC, БПЛА, робототехника, and industrial control applications.

It provides a bridge between SBUS receivers, USB computers, microcontrollers, and UART-based devices, allowing users to easily exchange control signals and channel data between different systems.

Unlike simple USB-UART converters, this module is specially designed for SBUS communication. It handles:

  • SBUS signal level conversion
  • SBUS protocol parsing
  • UART communication conversion
  • Управление синхронизацией кадров
  • Optional SBUS encoding and decoding
  • Data integrity verification

После преобразования, users can treat SBUS communication like a standard serial interface without dealing with complicated SBUS protocol details.

Why Is an SBUS Converter Needed?

Understanding SBUS Protocol

SBUS is a digital RC communication protocol originally developed by Futaba.

Although SBUS is similar to UART, it is not a standard UART communication format.

Standard SBUS parameters:

  • Скорость передачи данных: 100 кбит/с
  • Start bit: 1
  • Stop bits: 2
  • Even parity

Most computers, microcontrollers, and serial applications cannot directly process this format.

Problems include:

  • Unsupported baud rate
  • Incorrect timing
  • Communication errors
  • High data loss rate

What Does Our Converter Solve?

The module performs three important functions:

1. Electrical Signal Conversion

Converts SBUS electrical signals into normal UART logic levels.

2. Protocol Conversion

Converts the special SBUS communication format into standard UART:

Supported UART baud rates:

  • 9600
  • 38400
  • 57600
  • 115200

Standard output format:

  • 1 стартовый бит
  • 1 стоп-бит
  • Нет паритета

3. SBUS Data Processing

The module can automatically process SBUS frames.

Users do not need to write complicated SBUS parsing programs.

The module handles:

  • Сдвиг битов
  • Извлечение канала
  • Frame synchronization
  • Error checking

Configuration Options Explained

Different applications require different firmware configurations.

Please select the correct option before ordering.


Вариант 1: Basic SBUS Transparent Version

100K Baud Rate SBUS Transparent Transmission

This version keeps the original SBUS communication format.

Parameters:

  • Скорость передачи данных: 100 кбит/с
  • Start bit: 1
  • Stop bits: 2
  • Even parity

Подходит для:

  • Devices already supporting native SBUS communication
  • Basic SBUS signal monitoring

Important Note

100K baud rate is not a common UART speed.

Many MCUs and serial devices do not support it directly.

Please confirm compatibility before purchasing this version.


Вариант 2: Версия с регулируемой скоростью передачи данных

This is the recommended version for most development applications.

The module converts SBUS into standard UART communication.

Supported baud rates:
