Original Arduino Mega 2560 Development board

Original Arduino Mega 2560 development board

This is Original Arduino Mega 2560 development board from Arduino Officials based on ATmega16U2. The Official Arduino Mega 2560 is Rev3 development board based on ATmega2560 microcontroller. The Mega board has 54 digital input/output pins (of which 14 can be used as PWM outputs), 16 analogue inputs, 4 UARTs (hardware serial ports), a 16MHz crystal oscillator, a USB connection, a power jack, an ICSP header, and a reset button. It contains everything needed to support the arduino microcontroller, simply connect it to a computer with a USB cable or power it with an AC to DC adaptor or battery to get started.

The Mega is compatible with most shields designed for the Arduino Uno, Duemilanove or Diecimila. The Arduino Mega can be powered via the USB connection or with an external power supply. The power source is selected automatically. The Arduino Mega2560 has a number of facilities for communicating with a computer, another Arduino or other microcontrollers.
