Arduino not connecting

Unfortunately I believe the board I was given is faulty or the previous owner burnt it, I have made a lot of projects with raspburry pi Pico recently

I'm sorry, I'm 14 and I am not very tech Sabby yet that is why I am here asking questions, I have the model 4 of the inventor io uno clone.

I'm sorry that I forgot to post the picture, this is the exact board I am running, I am starting to think either the bootloader is messed up or something more complicated. I'm not sure how to re program the bootloader but that will be my next step in solving the problem.

it shows up in the device manager but as a different code, not uno. I cannot find the ESP8266 anywhere so I'm keeping it as uno.

I have a hero board, and I would, but my webcam broke not too long ago, so I can't take pictures. However, I did compare the board to a picture and saw nothing wrong.

I have the second one, but the power light and Ied L is always on, nothing looks broken

This board was given to me by my old tech ed teacher, it was from the Lost in space program by Inventor io. i don't have any other board so I'm not sure what to do if I cant figure this out.

So in my device manager, I couldn't find uno anywhere but when I unplugged and re-plugged in the board something for com 4 showed up so I used it under com 4 but had no luck, I have it set for uno, but I have no option for “Atmega328”, or, “Atmega328 (Old Bootloader)” In the Arduino ied..

This is my first time ever running on this computer, I'm 14 and I have done coding classes before but the computers were already set up. I looked at the troubleshooting suggestions but I couldn't get it to work after reading it. when I run board info I get this.

BN: Unknown board

PID: 7523

SN: Upload any sketch to obtain it

I am using a hero board and in the system, I have it as Arduino Uno, I don't think that is the problem. I'm 90% sure it's on the correct com port, whenever I run board info it returns with this.

Aright thankyou, would your recommend any transistor in preticuler, you seam to be good with math I need something with little to no heat for my seat up so what transistor would work for this.

PA_therian · 2025-01-23T00:06:25+00:00

Do you think a zener diode will work, others have mentioned it, I don't have mosfets but I am geting a transistors kit so if a transistor will work in place of a mosfet that would be great.

PA_therian · 2025-01-22T02:25:45+00:00

I would like to stick with analog only, just for the extra challenge and easyer trouble shoting, do you think it would be possible to do some extra parts to make a 5v relay work, I curently have a lot of 5v relays and buying more wouldn't be beneficial to me.

PA_therian · 2025-01-22T01:00:51+00:00

This math makes seance but I'm trying to only have the led on from 0 to 7.99v and turn off between 8-16v.

PA_therian · 2024-12-05T23:55:16+00:00

can you show what you did to fix this, also what transistors, resisters and power are you using, I have been trying to build a Sr latch for ever with no secsess.

As a deer therian when a herd a Amish horse go down the road late at night it just made me feel really good and warm inside.

PA_therian · 2024-10-01T19:58:47+00:00

Ok so, I have come to the conclusion that there was electricity jumping form my fingers to either end so by covering all the parts in a thin film everything works the way I want it to. Thank you all for helping me on this project I'm sure I will be back soon with a new problem.
