Serial Cable DeLOCK 63947 USB 2.0 Type-C 2m

The DeLOCK Serial Cable 63947 is a 2.0 m cable with a USB 2.0 Type-C connector on one end and a 6-pin TTL-compatible header (2.54 mm pitch) on the other. It provides a direct connection to GPIO or UART interfaces for data transfer and control signals, suitable for use with single-board computers, microcontrollers, FPGAs and other electronic circuits. The cable is black and offers flexible reach for test benches and development setups.

Advantages

The cable uses a USB Type-C 2.0 plug for broad compatibility with modern hosts and a standard 6-pin 2.54 mm header for direct connection to TTL/UART or GPIO pins. Its 2.0 m length allows flexible placement of devices during development or testing. The simple wiring and compact connector pair enable straightforward integration into existing boards and fixtures.

Suitable for

• Connecting single-board computers (e.g., Raspberry Pi-style boards) to serial consoles
• Programming and debugging microcontrollers and development boards via UART
• Interfacing FPGAs and custom electronics with a PC or laptop
• Prototype testing and bench measurement setups requiring serial connectivity

Key specifications

• Connector 1: USB 2.0 Type-C
• Connector 2: 6-pin header, pitch 2.54 mm (TTL/UART compatible)
• Cable length: 2.0 m
• Colour: Black

How to use

Plug the USB Type-C end into a host device with a USB 2.0 port. Connect the 6-pin header to the target board’s GPIO or UART pins, ensuring correct alignment of TX, RX, VCC (if used) and GND according to the target device pinout. Use appropriate serial communication settings (baud rate, parity, stop bits) in your terminal or programming tool. If powering the target from the cable is required, verify voltage levels and pin assignments before applying power.

Recommendations

Verify pin mapping between the 6-pin header and your target device before connection to avoid damage. Do not assume the header provides power unless explicitly required and confirmed. Use correct serial settings and ESD precautions when working with exposed GPIO pins.
