Product Description & Technical Details
Product Description: The Uno R3 Compatible Board is a cost-effective, high-performance version of the industry-standard Arduino Uno. It is built using the same ATmega328P microcontroller, ensuring 100% compatibility with the Arduino IDE, libraries, and the vast ecosystem of Arduino shields. This board is the most popular choice for beginners, hobbyists, and students at Robogears due to its durability and ease of use. It features a standardised pin layout, making it the perfect foundation for learning electronics, building robotics, or developing automated IoT systems.
Key Highlights
Full Arduino Ecosystem Support: Seamlessly works with all official and third-party Arduino libraries and shields, from motor drivers to LCD screens.
Socketed ATmega328P: The microcontroller is often seated in a DIP socket, allowing you to replace the chip easily if it gets damaged during experimentation.
Standard USB Type-B Port: Utilises the rugged and reliable "printer-style" USB connector, which provides a strong mechanical connection for classroom and workshop environments.
Dual Power Logic: Can be powered via the USB port for low-power tasks or via the DC barrel jack (7V–12V) for projects involving motors or high-brightness LEDs.
Expandable Prototyping: Includes 14 digital I/O pins (with 6 PWM outputs) and 6 analogue inputs, providing ample connectivity for multiple sensors and actuators.
