= Adding a serial port (voids warranty) = There are UART pads available on this device, but they are not tested and probably multiplexed with the microSD adapter.

Device disassembly
This can easily be done with a Plastic tool or a sharp fingernail.

Locating the UART
UART is located next to the CPU A33.
