Mega Board 2560 R3 Arduino Compatible

Arduino Mega Board 2560 R3-Compatible gives your projects more pins, memory, and serial ports without changing your workflow. With the ATmega2560 @ 16 MHz, 54 digital I/O (15 PWM), 16 analog inputs, and 4 hardware UARTs, it’s a favorite for robots, CNC/3D-printer control, dashboards, and classroom labs in the Philippines. The R3 layout keeps it friendly with most Arduino shields, sensors, and displays.

Go Big on I/O — 54 Pins, 4 UARTs, Mega-Sized Projects

  • Massive expansion: 54 digital pins, 16 analog, 15 PWM for complex control panels and bots.
  • Multi-serial ready: 4 UARTs let you run GPS, GSM, Bluetooth, and a PC console simultaneously.
  • Memory for larger sketches: 256 KB Flash and 8 KB SRAM handle libraries, buffers, and UIs.
  • Shield & library friendly: R3 footprint, 5 V logic, and broad Arduino ecosystem support.

What you can build

  • Robotics: 4WD/6WD platforms with multiple motor drivers, IMU, ToF, and encoders
  • CNC/3D printing: motion control with RAMPS-style shields, endstops, heaters, fans
  • Data acquisition: multi-sensor logging via RTC + microSD shields
  • Interface hubs: keypads, relays, stepper drivers, large TFTs and LED matrices

Pinout & power notes

  • SPI: Use the 6-pin ICSP header for SPI to ensure shield compatibility (don’t rely on pins 50–53).
  • 5 V logic: If a module is 3.3 V-only, add a logic level converter.
  • Serial devices: Put GPS/GSM/Bluetooth on Serial1–3 and keep Serial free for debugging.
  • Power budget: Servos/steppers need an external supply; don’t power motors from the board’s 5 V rail.

What’s in the box

  • Mega 2560 R3-compatible board (USB cable not included unless stated in variants)
  • Pre-soldered headers (typical for this board class)

FAQs – Mega 2560 R3-Compatible (Philippines)

Will my UNO shields work?
Yes—most UNO R3 shields are compatible. For SPI shields, use the ICSP header; adjust chip-select pins if stacking multiple shields.
Which cable and drivers do I need?
Use a USB-B cable. If your PC can’t detect the board, install the correct USB driver (e.g., CH340 or CP2102), depending on the batch.
How is the Mega different from the UNO?
More I/O (54 vs 14), more memory (256 KB vs 32 KB), and 4 UARTs instead of 1—ideal for larger projects and multiple peripherals.
Do you ship nationwide and support school/corporate orders?
Yes. We ship nationwide across the Philippines via trusted couriers and can prepare classroom bundles and bulk quotations on request.
