where should I connect DTR?

QuickFeather UART supports RX and TX only. There is no support for Control signals.

The example firmware "quickfeather-simple-stream-data-collection.bin" does not require a USB to TTL serial adapter for basic functionality. However, if you want to debug or monitor the firmware's output, you will need a USB to TTL serial adapter.

The FT232RL USB to TTL serial adapter you mentioned should be compatible with the QuickFeather board. To connect it to the QuickFeather board, you can connect the pins as follows:

Connect the GND pin of the adapter to the GND pin of the QuickFeather board.
Connect the VCC pin of the adapter to the VCC pin of the QuickFeather board.
Connect the TX pin of the adapter to pin 2 (RX) of the QuickFeather board.
Connect the RX pin of the adapter to pin 3 (TX) of the QuickFeather board.
Connect the DTR pin of the adapter to the RESET pin of the QuickFeather board.
By connecting the DTR pin to the RESET pin, the adapter can reset the QuickFeather board when needed, which is useful for programming the board.
