Devices

The following devices are known to work well with Serial:

• Particle Photon, Electron, Xenon, Argon and Boron

• BeagleBone Black

• Sparkfun's Arduino Pro Micro 5V/16MHz and Arduino Pro Micro 3.3V/8MHz

• Moxa UPort 1000 Series Devices

• Keyspan/Tripp-Lite USA-19HS

• USB Modems that list CDC compliance - "soft modems" often are not compliant

• Any other USB CDC compliant device
