Detailed Device Info
The EM1206 has three connectors: main connector, additional connector, and magnetics connector. Depending on the EM1206 version, the magnetics connector can be soldered facing up or down, as described in the Mechanical Dimensions topic.

- This line is 5V-tolerant and can be interfaced to 5V CMOS devices directly.
- This line can serve as an RTS/Wout/cout line of a serial port (provided that this does not interfere with any other function).
- This line can serve as a CTS/W0&1in/cin line of a serial port (provided that this does not interfere with any other function).
