   • no 3.3V on PCB. I guess connect to WCH-Link 3V3?

boot to high pin => seems to enable USB even with SWD plugged in

This is USB bootloader mode

Document at https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openwch/ch32v307/main/EVT/PUB/CH32V30xEVT%20Evaluation%20Board%20Manual.pdf indicates that for USB bootloader mode: "(1) BOOT0 to VCC, BOOT1 to the ground, connect to PC via serial port or USB"

WCHISPStudio (the separate programming tool) sees the device when jumpered this way. The IDE doesn't, so it might be necessary to use this tool to do the programming.

Unbrick

In theory we have all firmware (system ROM, bootloader, main firmware) and should be able to unbrick devices. However, I was unable to restore my devices

Theory: unrick issue is firmware is not at correct .hex location. Things that didn't seem to work to get firmware .hex file:

 objcopy --input-target=binary --output-target=ihex --set-start 0x08000000 t48_bootrom_2022-06-30.bin t48_bootrom_2022-06-30.hex

 objcopy --input-target=binary --output-target=ihex --change-addresses 0x08000000 t48_bootrom_2022-06-30.bin t48_bootrom_2022-06-30.hex  

 objcopy --input-target=binary --output-target=ihex t48_bootrom_2022-06-30.bin temp.hex
 objcopy --change-addresses 0x08000000 temp.hex t48_bootrom_2022-06-30.hex
