The USB to serial bridge should be automatically recognized and be available at /dev/ttyACM0. Easier route would be to just plug Arduino into the Pi via USB. There’s basically two ways to link the Arduino to the Pi. Everything you type into minicom should appear in the serial terminal on PC side, and characters typed to serial terminal should appear on minicom. Then open Putty or similar serial terminal on PC side.

Install minicom ( sudo apt-get install minicom) and attach is to serial terminal: If you have a 3.3V compatible serial adapter in your computer (or a MAX3232 and normal RS-232 adapter, in which case see my tutorial on building one), it’s a good time to try out if everything is working on the Pi side. You’ll need to reboot the Pi in order for the changes to take effect.
If you don’t want the Pi sending stuff over the serial line when it boots, you can also remove the statements console=ttyAMA0,115200 and kgdboc=ttyAMA0,115200 from /boot/cmdline.txt.
In order to use the Pi’s serial port for anything else than as a console, you first need to disable getty (the program that displays login seen) by commenting the serial line out of Pi’s /etc/inittab: And if you do try the method below, never connect the Pi to Arduino RX pin before you have already flashed the program to Arduino, otherwise you may end up with a damaged Pi!!!

So the method described below may be risky – I suggest either add a resistor in series to the RX pin, or use a proper level converter (see this post for details how to accomplish that). I suspect it is due to the fact that the Arduino is programmed via these same pins every time you flash it from Arduino IDE, and there are external (weak) pullups to keep the lines to 5V at other times. IMPORTANT UPDATE! It turns out that the RX pin on the Arduino is held at 5V even when that pin is not initialized. It turned out the task was even easier than my previous Pi to RS-232 project – all that was needed between the two devices was some jumper wire and two 1 kOhm resistors to form a voltage divider between Arduino TX pin and Pi RX pin – Arduino understands Pi’s 3.3V signal levels just fine so Pi TX to Arduino RX needed no voltage shifting at all. So I decided to see if I could get my Arduino Uno and Raspberry Pi to talk to each other. Today’s the last day of my summer holiday, and I had some free time on my hands.
