Deek Robot mini pro and yp-05 breakoutboard

dick2

I am trying to go from an Arduino uno to a Deek Robot  Pro Mini board. I am having a problem connecting the breakout board. I am new at this and can't find this simple piece of info. The pin outs to connect them don't seem to match up. My boards pins are

   YP-05         Deek Robot Pro Mini

  gnd               gnd

  cts                gnd

  vcc               vcc

  tx                 rx

  rx                 txd

  dtr                dtr

 

    Do I solder them together straight across like that? Do I connect rx to rx and tx to tx?  I have an Ultrasonic theremin program on an arduino UNO. Will I have any problem using the same sketch to program this to the pro mini??

    This page (you might need to hit the translate button) shows the connections.

    Deek-Robot Pro Mini (arduino clon)   (His is a knock-off since it has Deek_Robot)

     

    Note that from the searching there are 5v and 3v3 versions just like the Arduino Mini.

    Some FTDI programmers have a voltage switch, so make sure you have it set to match the board.

     

    Hopefully it works ......but :-

     

     

     

    It looks like the knock-offs may not have the right bootloader installed.

    Some have two capacitors swapped which means they won't work.

     

     

    There is an interesting comment here about identifying a genuine one.

    Nearly all "Arduino" boards use the Atmega328 chip in various forms, so yes it should work.

    Sometimes there are different chips and the IDE compiles for the right one based on the 'board'.

    There are some boards that don't have the xtal and run at 8MHz instead of 16MHz, and for these the timing is different so some sketches may not work.
