If I desolder the CH340 from an UNO board (or snip pins 2 & 3) and connect an external PL2303 USB - RS232 converter, will it be recognized and will it work?
I want to run the RS232 signals through a swivel connection - probably a jack socket and thought this may be the best way.
Edit, just realized the DTR pin is used to reset the atmega. Guess the answer is no.
