Does anyone have an association for color vs Tx/Rx of a UART?
I've latched on to the FTDI, where Tx is Orange and Rx is Yellow, but I don't know why and I struggle to remember it...
Naturally there's a point where the colors need to swap, but internal looms and debug wires tend to have a fairly clean side / split / swap at the interface / connector... at least in my head.
There's also an issue when you use the color from the "other half", to ease hookup, like this recent test fixture... 🙈
