Arduino leonardo broken port

Hello are there more ways to connect the arduino to pc then Tru the micro USB port it broke of

Hi @Rudywiens. You can use an ISP programmer to upload sketches to the Arduino Leonardo via the ICSP header.

You can learn about that, and how to use a spare Arduino board as an ISP programmer here:

Note this can only be used for uploading. You will not be able to use Serial Monitor or emulate a keyboard or mouse.

The serial communication could be achieved by connecting a USB to serial adapter (AKA "FTDI") to pins 0 and 1 on the board then communicating via Serial1 instead of Serial. Something like this:

But as for the keyboard and mouse emulation, that will no longer be possible unless you are able to somehow repair the USB connector.

OK thank you

You are welcome. Best wishes for success in your endeavors!
