Is there any know issues of Adruino IDE communicating with Nano's with the CH430 USB to serial chip vs the FTDI chip?
I am having some issues and wonder if it is the CH430 causing my issues. The nano is on a GRBL cnc board. I can't communicate from the ide but I can with Hype Terminal, kinda strange!
I have no trouble with ch340g based boards - I use them almost exclusively due to the low cost and durability, and my.inability to tell (before the seller has my money) if a supposed ft232rl board has real or non-working counterfeit chip.
How are you attempting to communicate? Does uploading sketches work?
