The new modules "IrDA Adapter", having the shape of a normal RS-232 connector (without cable), contain all the electronic circuitry and the protocol stack to interface any RS-232 enabled equipment (PC, laboratory instruments, etc.) with IrDA devices. The modules are self-powered directly from the RS-232 interface and make any device with an RS-232 interface (even the simplest microcontroller) instantly capable of communicating with IrDA peripherals.

These adapters are available with a plastic enclosure or as bare printed circuit board (OEM version).

Similarly to the IrDA adapter, we also introduce a "radio" equivalent, where the wireless transmission of the RS-232 is carried over radio waves (ISM band, 900 MHz), instead of infrared.
