Arduino uses FTDI chips to create serial port connection between computer and the chip, so you can program the Atmel chip inside the Arduino board, without the need of any ISP programmers. If we look at the schematic of Arduino, we will see that the RX and TX pins are connected to the FTDI chip (as we expected) (on Arduino board as pin 0 and pin 1) That means we can use those pins for using the FTDI chip itself.

Buy the Arduino from: Banggood | Amazon

There are 3 ways I know you can turn your Arduino Board into a USB Serial Adapter.

1 – Connect RESET pin to GND

2 – Remove the Atmel Chip

This driver is for the CB-FTDI USB to Serial cable (CSI Part# 17394 - Black Cable). Support is for Windows XP/Vista/7/8/10 32 & 64 bit. This driver is not compatible with the SC-USB Interface. Note: Install the driver before plugging the cable into your computer. CH340/CH341 USB to serial port Windows driver, includes DLL dynamic library and non-standard baud rate settings and other instructions. Supports 32/64-bit Windows 10/8.1/8/7/VISTA/XP, Server 2016/2012/2008/2003, 2000/ME/98，Microsoft WHQL Certified, supports USB to 3 and 9 wire serial ports.

3 – Upload a Sketch

The sketch basically stops the Atmel chip to interfere the communication between FTDI chip and your other device.

To do that, you don’t need to unplug the Atmel chip from its place. Before using your Arduino board as usb-serial converter you can upload that piece of code.

I hope it helps someone out there.

Download ComTestSerial for free, use it and give it to anyone who has a need for a serial communications test program!

MicroRidge manufactures a variety of serial interface devices. We had a need for a fast, effective and easy-to-use serial test communications program. We developed ComTestSerial to meet that need, and are offering it free of charge to anyone who has a need for a test program to help them understand the output of their serial device.

Version 3.1.0.133 released April 2, 2019

Important Distribution Notes:

ComTestSerial can be installed on as many computers as needed.
You can also give ComTestSerial to anyone who has a need for a serial communications test program.
You cannot modify the ComTestSerial program file in any manner.
Unless you have written permission from MicroRidge, you cannot distribute ComTestSerial with any other software or hardware that is being sold or licensed.

ComTestSerial was developed by and is the property of MicroRidge Systems, Inc., Sunriver, Oregon.

Why do you need ComTestSerial?
When you cannot get communications between your serial device and your application, you typically need to perform the following troubleshooting steps. These steps are general troubleshooting guidelines. Our experience has shown us that you can save hours and even days worth of troubleshooting if you first get an understanding of the operation of your serial device using a test program such as ComTestSerial.

Connect your serial device to a serial communications test program such as ComTestSerial.
Press the send button on your serial device to send information to ComTestSerial or send a command from ComTestSerial to your serial device.
Find the manual for your serial device to determine what the baud rate and communications parameters should be (yes, I know we all hate to read the manual!).
If you have multiple serial ports on your PC, change the serial port within ComTestSerial to determine which serial port your device is connected to.
Refer to the Help Troubleshooting Section in ComTestSerial for additional suggestions.
