{"product_id":"sparkfun-xbee-explorer-usb","title":"SparkFun XBee Explorer USB","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis is a simple to use, USB to serial base unit for the Digi XBee line. This unit works with all XBee modules including the Series 1 and Series 2.5, standard and Pro version. Plug the unit into the XBee Explorer, attach a mini USB cable, and you will have direct access to the serial and programming pins on the XBee unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe highlight of this board is an FT231X USB-to-Serial converter. That’s what translates data between your computer and the XBee. There’s also a reset button, and a voltage regulator to supply the XBee with plenty of power. In addition, there are four LEDs that’ll help if you ever need to debug your XBee: RX, TX, RSSI (signal-strength indicator), and power indicator.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis board also breaks out each of the XBee’s I\/O pins to a pair of breadboard-compatible headers. So if you want to make use of the XBee’s extended functionality, you can solder some header pins into those, or even just solder some wire.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNotes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThere is no XBee included with this Explorer USB.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThis board cannot source the power required for the Cellular XBee line.
