Hi, Any1 have experience with this usb to TTL 6 pin converters? I just want to know if I have a dodgy one that I bought from Ali or normal behaviour.

Doesnt seem right. I have it plugged to a powerbank, following voltages read from pinout, without any jumper link.

5v = 5.3 Vcc = 3.9v 3.3 = 3.2v Tx RX = 3.9v

If I use jumper link from 5v to VCC, then tx RX = 5.3v, if I jumper link VCC and 3.3, RX and tx = 3.9v.

Thanks for reading

I use the ones from ftdi all the time, it sounds similar in concept. (Though I only use Rx/into the PC and ground).
