arduino ch341 serial driver linux 3.16.0

However, I can stress that the NANO is but an EXAMPLE of a board with the CH340 chip which I have.Īs I was stuck with the CH340 driver (on the NANO) I wasn't going to go and make things more difficult for myself with other CH340 chipped boards. I can not argue with what you are saying. The font is PATHETIC and I haven't got around to finding where to set it so it is clearer to read.Ĩ28, 328.

Now, I shall have to apologise if the numbers are wrong. So maybe it is 'wrong' but if it allows/allowed me to flash the chips: As far as I can see: It works. I simply changed the processor from ATMEGA (standard) to OLD BOOT LOADER. I downloaded some but they lacked instructions that were clear. As well as USB.įinally after a lot of time - again - I went down and selected OLD BOOT LOADER (not altering anything else) and it worked. I wasted a lot of time trying to find/download the drivers all the time seeing they were 'part of the package' - and so shouldn't need to be downloaded.Īt this stage I had NANO ATMEGA828P and nothing else set.Īs I am not Linux speaking, there were AMA0, and a whole heap of other things. Well, Ok, but I have to point out that until the 'solution' was found, I chose:Īnd on the other machines/earlier versions of the IDE, it flashed the NANO and they were flashed.Īs I stated, I needed to flash a NANO with the CH340 chip. I can't send screen shots as they don't capture the menus when they are open. I had spent hours searching for the answer. Look for that option on your board if you get AVR-DUDE not responding or errors like that. I'm guessing it is the 'OLD BOOT LOADER' part which does the magic. ATMega838P, ATMega838P (Old boot loader) and a third one. TOOLS/PROCESSOR/ATMega828p There are 3 options. In the IDE, TOOLS/BOARD/Arduino Nano (as for me) (Don't waste time downloading drivers and all that. Until one day when I needed to program one. Things worked and I put the CH340 problem to the back of my mind. I have since updated to 1.8.5 and it was looking good. 'Originally' I downloaded drivers for the CH340 NANO (or other - but that is the one which killed me) and they worked with the original IDE I had. I hesitated at updating the IDE and have now also have a UBUNTU IDE.
