<body class='hmmessage'><div dir='ltr'>Not sure about the mac drivers etc but on my UNO that has the reprogrammable usb chip, I removed the atmega 328 and connected it up to a pro-mini (of course selected pro-mini as the board in arduino ide) and it worked fine as a a USB serial, also watched a Ben Heck video where he used an UNO without its chip to to etst a serial output keyboard, a reflashed xbox360 chatpad to be more precise.<BR>
<BR>
In short, if you have an UNO you don't really need a sepparate usb serial.<BR> <BR>
