Drivers de Communication

If you are reading these lines, you are certainly desperate because you are unable to make your computer communicate with your last internet purchase : a compatible (x)uino board from China. The (x)uino boards have, for the most, two distinct groups of circuits : the microcontroller  and the USB / Serial adapter. It's is on theeses we are pesting in these lines. There are several circuit families and, the  Arduino distribution (Arduino IDE) does not offer all the drivers of these exotic circuits. You will find below the drivers of different families of communication circuits

The most frequent familly. Normaly included with arduino's IDE.  But who knows !!

An alternative sometimes used in "exotic" boards and in some GPS antennas. 

Usualy used with Chines compatibles  (x)uino  boards. Certainely because this chip is less expensive than ftdi's ones.

As far as I know,  no industrial (x)uino boards where equipped with this chip. Nothing prevents a friend  (electronic engineer) to design a board with this converter.

Those wishing to "play" with STmicroelectronics' Nucleo boards will need this specific communication driver to be able to "talk" to these boards via USB.

The zadig software is not strictly speaking a driver, but a software that installs on your system the generic WinUsb drivers libusb-win32/libusb0.sys or libusbK, to help access the USB devices. To be used when you are confused and don't understand why the classic drivers don't seem to work. Clicking on the icon gives you a version of zadig. Feel free to check the official website https://zadig.akeo.ie/ to see if a more recent version exists.
