This board converts a USB connection into 5 volt TX and RX that you can connect straight to the Arduino Mini or other microcontrollers, allowing them to talk to the computer. It is based on the FT232RL chip from FTDI ([http://www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm drivers] are included with the Arduino software).
