Hi friends, if you are serious about CH341A - get a version with a
green PCB board, it's more likely to give you 3.3V (instead of the
erroneous 5V which the bugged version of black CH341A could be
giving). And just in case, verify the output pins with a multimeter,
to see it's really a 3.3V...

Sorry if that's off-topic, but by using a Tianocore payload you could
be exposing yourself to the new UEFI-targeting NSA-grade malware. Of
course the coreboot is more secure when paired with more traditional
payloads. But I don't know about your setup, maybe the security is not
your primary concern
Tianocore, being a standard UEFI, is vulnerable to UEFI-targeting
malware whose functionality is based on UEFI architecture.
"Traditional" payloads are not UEFI - and therefore are not vulnerable
to UEFI-targeting malware. It does not take a genius to realize that.
