Why choose it

This board combines the extensive I/O capabilities of the Mega 2560 with a compact layout that fits into tight enclosures. The CH340G USB-to-serial chip ensures reliable programming and communication, while the 16 MHz clock speed and 256 KB flash memory handle demanding sketches with ease. Its four hardware UARTs are a standout feature for projects requiring multiple serial devices simultaneously.

Ideal use cases

• Compact robotics and drone controllers
• Multi-sensor data acquisition systems
• Custom keyboard or MIDI controllers
• Home automation hubs with numerous inputs/outputs
• Prototyping before moving to custom PCB designs

Good to know

The board is fully compatible with the Arduino IDE, so you can use existing libraries and examples without modification. The Pro Mini form factor means it lacks onboard headers, allowing you to solder exactly the connections you need. Power can be supplied via the Micro USB port or through the VIN pin with a 7-12V source. Note that the 3.3V pin can provide up to 50 mA, sufficient for low-power sensors and modules.
