Arduino MEGA 2560 R3 Clone

Arduino MEGA 2560 R3 Clone

       Arduino is an open source prototyping platform. Arduino was designed with the purpose of allowing students who do not know electronics and programming and electronics enthusiasts to easily develop applications.
       Arduino boards can read various inputs (such as light sensor, button, internet messages). and can create various outputs to the outside (such as lighting a led, driving a motor, sending a message to the internet).
       At the end of many years, arduino users have produced thousands of projects. These are in a wide range extending from very simple levels to very complex levels. You too can easily learn these projects and use them in developing your own applications. You can also put forward new applications specific to yourself.


Arduino advantages

• For beginners the arduino software is very easy to use. It is flexible enough for advanced level users.
• It can run on all of the Mac, linux and windows operating systems.
• Arduino kits are very cheap and easily accessible.
• Arduino Software provides a simple and easy programming environment. It is ideal for those who are just starting to learn programming.
• With its open source structure, a great many application examples can be reached. With its C++ based libraries you can easily develop applications. Also if you want you can easily add your Avr-C codes to your project.
• Again there is the possibility of developing your applications with open source additional development modules, shields, sensor boards. You can easily make your own additional boards and add them to arduino boards.
• Atmel company mcus are found on Arduino boards.
• There is no need for a programmer. It can both be programmed and applications can be made from the same board.
• Thanks to its analog and digital inputs it can detect a great many inputs.
• You can produce outputs to the outside world ( such as sound, light, motion etc.).
• It is widely used. Thanks to this there is the possibility of finding plenty of resources on the internet.

Arduino MEGA 2560 R3

       It is an Arduino board containing the ATmega2560 microcontroller. It can be said that it is the most preferred Arduino board after the Arduino Uno.
The Arduino Mega 2560 has 54 digital input / output pins. 15 of these can be used as PWM output. In addition, there are 16 analog inputs, 4 UART (hardware serial port), one 16 MHz crystal oscillator, USB connection, power jack (2.1mm), ICSP programming socket and reset button. The Arduino Mega 2560 contains all of the components necessary to support a microcontroller. The Arduino Mega 2560 can be operated by connecting it to a computer, with an adapter or with a battery. The Arduino Mega can be used with most of the shields designed for the Arduino Duemilanove or Diecimila.
