High quality quick turn PCB Services https://www.pcbway.com You might be wondering if there is any way to tell for sure that you’ve got an FTDI FT232R clone. There are at least 2 methods that I know you can use. First one is to install an older version of the driver which FTDI released in 2014, after plugging your fake FTDI depending on the driver version it will either disable the FT232 chip by writing something to it’s internal EEPROM or it will modify it so that it shows a custom alert message over serial instead of your actual data. I don’t like this method, because there is a better, simpler way, you can simply check for the serial number of the FT232 which you can get from the device manager under windows or by using the FT_Prog utility. If your serial number is A50285BI or 00000000 then you most certainly have a fake chip because that is a popular serial number which is written to fake chips. They don’t bother changing the serial number on the fakes, they mostly write the same number or set it to zero. → USB to RS485 Converter Module (with fake FTDI) http://voltlog.com/y/q45dv → RS232 TTL Converter Module (with fake or low quality MAX3232) http://voltlog.com/y/pzufx →The tools I used in this video KSGER T12 Soldering Station http://voltlog.com/y/0joev BEST BST-863 Hot Air Station http://voltlog.com/y/a2w97 →Support the channel via Patreon, Paypal or Bitcoin http://www.voltlog.com/donations →Blog Post http://www.voltlog.com/ #VoltLog #FakeFTDI #USBSerial
