AVRFT234 – Small AVR-ISP Programmer
A small avrdude compatible AVR-ISP programmer based on the FTDI FT234X which only needs a standard micro USB cable. found many fairly big/bulky AVR-ISP programmers in the "middle" of cables (USB cable->programmer->cable->[adaptor->]6-pin connector) but I wanted something...

Johan Kanflo’s Esprog pogo pin connector: The FTDI connector can be found on just about any ESP8266 design. If you are building a gadget to be deployed somewhere and not a full blown development board, the FTDI connector is somewhat overkill. And it is quite large. A few pins...

Marko Pavlin has published a USB to RS485 converter. He writes: Testing of sensors with RS485 using PC without proper interface is not possible. Since RS232 interfaces are very rare, the interface should be hooked to USB. The interface between USB and RS485 can be soldered with one...
