Descripción
Arduino™ Mega 2560 is a microcontroller board based on the ATmega2560. It has 54 digital I/O pins (14 of which can be used as PWM outputs), 16 analog inputs, 4 UARTs (serial hardware interfaces), a 16 MHz crystal oscillator, a USB interface, a power and an ICSP connector and a reset button. Contains everything you need to accompany the microcontroller. Simply connect the board to a computer via USB or run it on AC/DC power or battery to start.
The Arduino™ Mega is compatible with most shields designed for Arduino™ Due, Duemilanove or Diecimila.
Other features of the R3 version are:
• ATmega16U2 instead of the 8U2 USB to serial converter
• A stronger RESET circuit
• 1.0 pinout: added SDA and SCL pins for TWI communication near the AREF pin and two more new pins near the RESET pin - the IOREF pin, which allows the shields to adapt to the voltage supplied by the board and a second pin is not connected, but is reserved for future use.
