My goal is to get the Espruino Arduino shield adapter to communicate via Serial with the Intel Edison Arduino breakout board correctly. Currently, it seems like there is interference as if there wasn't a common ground between the arduino shield adapter and the Intel Edison Arduino breakout. I have the Espruino Arduino shield connected into the Intel Eidson Arduino breakout sockets. I'm getting garbage data:
I then disconnect the Arduino shield adapter from the Intel Edison Arduino breakout and connect the grounds using breadboard jumper wires and the garbage characters stop.
I'm not understanding why when I connect the adapter directly to the intel edison breakout sockets I get the garbage characters and when I use jumper wires I don't receive the garbage characters.
Are both the ground pins of the Espruino Arduino adapter socket not connected to the Espruino pico GND pin?
