Product description: Arduino Mega 2560 Rev3 - module A000067
Arduino Mega is one of the richest versions. The board contains an ATmega2560 microcontroller, equipped with 54 digital inputs/outputs, of which 15 can be used as PWM outputs (e.g. for motor control) and 16 analog inputs. The system works with the signal ticking with the frequency of 16 MHz, has 256 KB Flash memory and 8 KB RAM SRAM.
The subject of the sale is the original product of Arduino, Botland is the official distributor of this company.
Key features Arduino Mega
Below are a few features that distinguish modules Arduino compared to other programmable tiles.
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
|
Installed bootloader |
Thanks to installed bootloader, to programm the device, you only have to use appropriate USB cable and software from manufacturer's website. |
|
Arduino Shield |
The distribution of connectors allows the installation of special caps, so-called Arduino Shield. |
|
Digital outputs |
56 digital inputs/outputs allows, in particular, to control the LEDs, relays and reading the buttons' states. |
|
Efficiency current |
The maximum power load for a single output is 40 mA. |
|
Output PWM |
15 PWM outputs allow e. g. to control the motors and for brightness control of the LEDs. |
|
Analog Inputs |
16 inputs of integrated analog-digital transmitter with a resolution of 10-bit, supports, in particular, sensors with analog output. |
|
Serial Communication |
The device supports popular network interfaces, including UART, I2C and SPI. |
| Special functions | Some of the pins have special functions which brief description is available in our guide. |
|
Built-in Memory |
The Atmega2560 chip with a clock signal with a frequency of 16 MHz, has 256 KB Flash memory, 4 KB EEPROM and 8 KB SRAM memory. |
|
Power of DC connector |
To power the Arduino, you can use any power source with a voltage from 7 V to 12 V with DC connector 5.5 x 2.1 mm. |
|
Power of USB port |
The tile can be powered from a computer via USB cable, bearing in mind that the maximum power load for the USB port is 500 mA. Arduino has a system that protects the socket from short-circuit and the flow of too large current. |
|
ICSO Connector |
The module has ICSP outputs for connecting an external AVR programmer. |
|
IOREF Pin |
The IOREF Pin provides direct access to the voltage with which I/O outputs work. |
|
Built-in led |
The connected led on pin 13 allows debugging of simple programs. |
|
Output 3.3 V |
Built-in voltage regulator provides power to external devices with the voltage of 3.3 V with current consumption of 50 mA. |
|
First run To help you get started with the module, we have prepared a tutorial about the installation and first run of the Arduino environment. |
