USB UART Disconnect DIP Switch (S3)
These DIP switches are used to electrically isolate the USB-UART signals from the
A2541 for applications that require low-power operation. All switch positions should be
set to the same setting (i.e. all ON or all OFF). The default state of all DIP switches is
ON (closed).
