 The following boards use either an Atmega16U2 or Atmega8U2 chip as a USB-to-serial converter:
 
-* Arduino UNO
-* Arduino UNO Rev3
+* Arduino UNO (Rev3 or earlier)
 * Arduino Mega
 * Arduino Mega2560 Rev3
 * Arduino MegaADK Rev3
 
-The converter chip firmware can be flashed with a computer by setting the board to **DFU mode** (Device Firmware Update).
+The converter chip firmware in these boards can be flashed with a computer by setting the board to **DFU mode** (Device Firmware Update). You may want to use this procedure to restore USB-to-serial functionality if the converter has become corrupted or is not working properly, and resolve communication issues between the board and your computer.

+Missing or corrupted **USB-to-Serial** firmware can cause UNO (Rev1 and Rev3) and Mega boards to be recognized as any of the following:
+
+- Unknown Device
+- Composite Device
+- ATmega16u2 DFU
+- Atmega8U2 DFU
+
+Resolve the issue by [flashing the USB-to-Serial firmware in DFU (Device Firmware Update) mode](https://support.arduino.cc/hc/en-us/articles/4408887452434).
