Teensy DMX Shield

[SimonWakley]

Does anyone have a circuit for a DMX on Teensy Shield.
I want to make a DMX sniffer that can read DMX commands to test a Artnet->DMX connection.
The Arduino one would work, but I'd love to use the Teensy 4.1.
This would only need to read, not write DMX so it unusual.
Thanks,
Simon

I use the RS485 backpack board from Bolder Flight Systems (bolderflight.com). Then I have a DMX plug I soldered to a connector that can plug onto the connector on the backpack. You might have to special order the board because I don’t think they have them on their website anymore.

Basically, all you need is an RS485-to-serial converter, so really anything that does that would work.

You can just use a RS485 breakout board like this one:
