Arduino Mega

Arduino Mega

The Arduino Mega is the powerhouse of the microcontroller-based Arduino line. With 54 digital I/O pins and 16 analog inputs, the Mega offers enough inputs and outputs to control even the biggest audio-visual projects (Yep, even concert light shows!). It also has four UARTs (compared to the Arduino Uno’s one), so you can easily link up with multiple other devices and create something […]

You might think of the Gemma as a “lite” version of the Flora. It has just 3 digital I/O pads, but at 1.1″ in diameter, it’s incredibly tiny. Like the Flora, it has an onboard battery connector, and is programmable via the Arduino IDE. While it may seem that its minimal I/O count limits its potential, many projects don’t require lots of I/O pins, […]
