Mega Board 2560 R3 Arduino Compatible

Mega Board 2560 R3 Arduino - This is an Arduino Mega compatible board. Arduino, generally, is an open-source hardware platform. It works with an IDE implemented under the Processing/Wiring language. It can be developed as a stand-alone device or a with multiple peripherals. 

The Mega Board 2560-R3 is ATmega 2560-based microcontroller board. The board hosts 54 digital input/output pins, 16 analog inputs, a USB connection, an ICSP header a 16 MHz crystal oscillator, a reset button, and a power jack. Hence, the Arduino Mega Board involves everything crucial to support the microcontroller. Users can connect it with the system using a USB cable and power it with an AC to DC adaptor.

Further, Arduino Mega 2560 integrates open-source principles. Ultimately, it enables you to download the development environment as well as other associated resources. The technology processes rapid application developments using either processing or Java platforms. All in all, the Arduino platform is ideal for multiple sorts of projects i.e. motor control, teaching, robotics, and many other applications.

Arduino Mega Board 2560 R3 – Features

The following are various key features of the Arduino board unit:

• Mega Board 2560 R3 is a 100% genuine Arduino board.
• It features a 5V operating voltage.
• The input voltage limit is 6-20V.
• The input voltage recommended is 7.12V.
• Digital I/O pins: 54
• DC Current per I/O pin: 40 mA
• DC Current (3.3V pin): 50 mA
• EEPROM: 4KB
• SRAM: 8KB
• Analog Input Pins: 16
• Flash Memory: 256KB
• Clock Speed: 16MHz
• Heavy gold plate construction
• Power: USB or external PSU

The Mega Board 2560 R3 is USB cable compatible. Arduino is well compatible with the Arduino software and reflects wholly hardware compatibility with the Arduino Shield. It brings ahigh-performing processor unit and a great memory to deal with complex and heavy procedures. The bootloader allows users to download sketches using USB and prevents the usage of other external writers. Since the power is driven via USB; the device switches between power inputs automatically.
