Troubleshooting CH340G issues on macOS

RE: Big Sur

FYI, I just spent hours chasing this down. The board wasn’t showing up under USB devices. Turns out that I was plugging into the USB 3.0 port on my MacBook. Switched to the port on the other side and the device showed up in this list of connected devices. Went back to PlatformIO and uploaded the sketch without issue. I didn’t need to change/add anything in the platformio.ini.

HTH

Is there any progress regarding the driver for the CH340K ? Aint have no time to wait for Apples coding boys…

Want a solution right now? Use linux. (Mac OS, Linux driver for CH340K · Issue #3 · LilyGO/LILYGO-T-OI · GitHub).
