===Programming with a PL2303 cable=== | |||
There are cheaper cables available than the FTDI. Many generic serial cables use the Prolific PL2303 chip, but these usually have RS232 converters and a 9-pin D-type connector. | |||
However, some mobile phone programming cables have the PL2303 with TTL (or, possibly, 3v3) connections. These are available for as little as 3 Euro on Dealextreme or eBay. | |||
Zoobab has successfully used a clone of Nokia CA-42 cable to program his nanode. [https://hackerspace.be/Get_to_know_Nanode#Flash_with_Nokia_CA42_.28PL2303.29 See his description here] | |||
