Description
This board was developed for applications and installations where space is premium and projects are made as permanent setups. It is small, programmable, and powered by ATmega328P.
Specifications:
- 14 digital input / output ports RX, TX, D2 ~ D13,
- 8 analog input ports A0 ~ A7
- 1 TTL level serial port transceiver port RX / TX
- 6 PWM ports: D3, D5, D6, D9, D10, D11
- Using Atmel Atmega328P-AU microcontroller
- Supports serial download
- Supports external 3.3V ~ 12V DC power supply
- Supports 9V battery powered
- Clock frequency 16MHz
- Size:33.3 * 18.0 (mm)
Use:
- The Arduino Pro Mini can be programmed with the Arduino software download.
- Project Hub: this is a large collection of Arduino projects to try.
- Programming Forum: this platform is a place to find help for programming the Arduino Pro Mini generic.
- Power. This can be a regulated +5V power source (e.g. from the +5V pin of the Mini USB Adapter or an Arduino NG) connected to the +5V pin of the Arduino Mini. Or, a +9V power source (e.g. a 9-volt battery) connected to the +9V pin of the Arduino Mini.
- Ground. One of the ground pins on the Arduino Mini must be connected to the ground of the power source.
- TX/RX. These pins are used both for uploading new sketches to the board and communicating with a computer or other device.
- Reset. Whenever this pin is connected to the ground, the Arduino Mini resets. You can wire it to a pushbutton, or connect it to +5V to prevent the Arduino Mini from resetting (except when it loses power). If you leave the reset pin unconnected, the Arduino Mini will reset randomly.
- An LED. While not technically necessary, connecting an LED to the Arduino Mini makes it easier to check if it’s working. Pin 13 has a 1 KB resistor on it, so you can connect an LED to it directly between it and the ground. When using another pin, you will need an external resistor.
