Arduino Pro Mini programming

Help & Support Robot Parts

i got an Arduino pro mini from Robotshop (RB-Spa-150) but dont know how to download codes…

i have a UARTsBee USB-Serial converter and would like to have it work with Pro Mini. for programming, it has 5 pins - TX, RX, VCC, GND, and DTR, but Pro Mini only has TX, RX, VCC, GND. No DTR pin!!!

my question is that would it be a problem for downloading codes to it without DTR pin? thanks.

Hi match0927,

Welcome to the RobotShop Forum. There is a nice getting started guide which shows you how to connect the Arduino Pro Mini to an FTDI board.

Hope this helps,
