The Company offers a range of software tools, hardware platforms and documentation enabling almost anybody to be creative with technology. Originally started as a research project by Massimo Banzi, David Cuartielles, Tom Igoe, Gianluca Martino, and David Mellis at the Interaction Design Institute of Ivrea in the early 2000s, it builds upon the Processing project, a language for learning how to code within the context of the visual arts developed by Casey Reas and Ben Fry as well as a thesis project by Hernando Barragan about the Wiring board. WHY ARDUINO? Inexpensive Arduino boards are relatively inexpensive compared to other microcontroller platforms. The least expensive version of the Arduino module can be assembled by hand, and even the pre-assembled Arduino modules cost not so high. Simple, clear programming environment The Arduino Software (IDE) is easy-to-use for beginners, yet flexible enough for advanced users to take advantage of as well. For teachers, it's conveniently based on the Processing programming environment, so students learning to program in that environment will be familiar with how the Arduino IDE works. Open source and extensible software The Arduino software is published as open source tools, available for extension by experienced programmers. The language can be expanded through C++ libraries, and people wanting to understand the technical details can make the leap from Arduino to the AVR C programming language on which it's based. Similarly, you can add AVR-C code directly into your Arduino programs if you want to. Open source and extensible hardware The plans of the Arduino boards are published under a Creative Commons license, so experienced circuit designers can make their own version of the module, extending it and improving it. Even relatively inexperienced users can build the breadboard version of the module in order to understand how it works and save money. ARDUINO CLASSICS Message from Massimo Banzi - co-founder β€œThe Arduino philosophy is based on making designs rather than talking about them. It is a constant search for faster and more powerful ways to build better prototypes. We have explored many prototyping techniques and developed ways of thinking with our hands.” MOST POPULAR OF CLASSICS Arduino Uno R3 The ideal board for getting started with electronics, through fun and engaging hands-on projects.

Review: Excellent product - Good product if you're starting out on Arduino. I've had it for quite a while and did some interesting projects with it. I needed the extra I/O ports it gives. Just a note to other buyers though: This is a genuine Arduino board, but remember that Arduino is open source hardware, and the base components are cheap (even though this is expensive). There are Hong Kong retailers that assemble the same thing for a much cheaper price. I've had one that's 1/4th of the price and works just as well. You could even assemble it yourself if you'd like. This is a good product. If you don't want to try your luck, like I did, get this one, but keep in mind you can get better deals. ## Features - ATmega2560 Microcontroller: Powered by the ATmega2560, a 8-bit microcontroller running at 16 MHz with 256KB of flash memory, 8KB SRAM, and 4KB EEPROM, providing ample storage and processing power for complex and memory-intensive applications. - 54 Digital I/O Pins & 16 Analog Inputs: Offers an expansive I/O capacity with 54 digital pins (15 of which can be used as PWM outputs), 16 analog inputs (10-bit resolution), and 4 hardware UARTs, making it ideal for large-scale projects involving multiple sensors, motors, and communication modules. - USB Connectivity for Programming: The built-in USB interface makes programming and communication straightforward through the Arduino IDE, allowing for easy sketch uploading and serial communication with external devices. - Enhanced Project Flexibility: With its large number of I/O pins, multiple serial ports, and increased memory, the Arduino Mega is perfect for complex applications such as robotics, 3D printers, home automation, and IoT systems. - Full Compatibility with Arduino IDE: Seamlessly integrates with the Arduino IDE, providing access to a vast collection of libraries, example projects, and a global community, enabling rapid development and prototyping for advanced makers and engineers. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0046AMGW0 | | Are Batteries Included | No | | Best Sellers Rank | 21,623 in Computers & Accessories ( See Top 100 in Computers & Accessories ) 1,401 in Components & Replacement Parts | | Brand | Arduino | | Colour | r.blue | | Computer Memory Type | SRAM | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (1,691) | | Date First Available | 4 Mar. 2011 | | Graphics Card Description | OpenGL | | Graphics Card Interface | Integrated | | Graphics Card Ram Size | 16.51 MB | | Graphics Chipset Brand | GΓ©nΓ©rique | | Graphics RAM Type | DDR4 SDRAM | | Guaranteed software updates until | unknown | | Hard Disk Description | Generic | | Hard Disk Rotational Speed | 1 RPM | | Hard Drive Interface | USB 2.0/3.0 | | Hard Drive Size | 1 GB | | Item Weight | 36 g | | Item model number | 2152366 | | Lithium Battery Weight | 5 Grams | | Manufacturer | Arduino | | Maximum Memory Supported | 16 GB | | Memory Technology | DDR | | Number of Lithium Metal Cells | 1 | | Number of USB 3.0 Ports | 2 | | Operating System | IDS | | Processor Brand | Atmel | | Processor Count | 1 | | Processor Speed | 16 MHz | | Processor Type | Handheld Engine CXD2230GA | | Product Dimensions | 11.7 x 6 x 2.5 cm; 36 g | | RAM Size | 8 KB | | Resolution | 1920 Pixels | | Screen Resolution | 1920 | | Series | Arduino Mega 2560 REV3 | | Standing screen display size | 1 Inches | | Voltage | 5 Volts | | Wireless Type | 802.11a | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Arduino - **CPU model:** Handheld Engine CXD2230GA - **Memory storage capacity:** 256 KB - **Model name:** Arduino Mega 2560 REV3 - **RAM memory installed size:** 8 KB ## Images ![Mega 2560 REV3 [A000067] - ATmega2560, 16MHz, 54 Digital I/O, 16 Analog In, 256KB Flash, USB, Arduino IDE Compatible for Advanced Projects & Prototyping - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71J7e0nL-1S.jpg) ![Mega 2560 REV3 [A000067] - ATmega2560, 16MHz, 54 Digital I/O, 16 Analog In, 256KB Flash, USB, Arduino IDE Compatible for Advanced Projects & Prototyping - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81LxWy8nrvS.jpg) ![Mega 2560 REV3 [A000067] - ATmega2560, 16MHz, 54 Digital I/O, 16 Analog In, 256KB Flash, USB, Arduino IDE Compatible for Advanced Projects & Prototyping - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71twVko+5jS.jpg) ![Mega 2560 REV3 [A000067] - ATmega2560, 16MHz, 54 Digital I/O, 16 Analog In, 256KB Flash, USB, Arduino IDE Compatible for Advanced Projects & Prototyping - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71y95FIb+hS.jpg) ![Mega 2560 REV3 [A000067] - ATmega2560, 16MHz, 54 Digital I/O, 16 Analog In, 256KB Flash, USB, Arduino IDE Compatible for Advanced Projects & Prototyping - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71CpPOlDRNS.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does this need external power or does it power through usb connection?? If external what power supply is recommended?** A: Hi, the answer is both - either - but not at the same time! When you are downloading a sketch, the USB powers things, but for remote running in a project, it will run off 7-12 volts into a jack. I have an old HDD psu that plugs into the mains and gives 12v at 1.5 amps, and that's fine. I hope this helps **Q: can I use any usb cable for this? I can't find a cable that states it is compatible. Amazon's earch is no good. sort it out.** A: You will require a USB cable type 1,2 or 3 with the other end a USB type B plug as per the image shown of the Arduino board and the type B socket [upper left] on the Mega board in order to upload sketches. The lower black socket is for a standard 9V din plug. I'm not sure if the Amazon offer includes a cable or not, it does not make that clear. **Q: is this an original arduino board?** A: The official Arduino website are selling the MEGA 2560 R3 at 35 euros (+ tax). They also have this information available free for you to assess whether the arduino you have is authentic. https://www.arduino.cc/en/Products/Counterfeit I cannot tell from the information you have posted, but it does seem about the same price as a genuine board. **Q: Does this really have WiFi?** A: Hello, The board has an ATmega2560 which has 54 digital input/output connections (14 of which can be used as PWM outputs), 16 analog outputs, 4 UARTs, a 16 MHz processor, a USB connection, a power connection. Operating voltage 5V.

I love these boards. They are great to use. They can be a little expensive at first sight but they come with lots of IO & fair amount of muscle. I've just done about 4 projects using these. Simple to use. Free development environment downloadable from the Arduino website. The language is C & the function set seems pretty good for such a small board. ## Frequently Bought Together - Arduino Mega 2560 REV3 [A000067] – ATmega2560, 16MHz, 54 Digital I/O, 16 Analog Inputs, 256KB Flash, USB, Compatible with Arduino IDE for Advanced Projects - ELEGOO 120pcs Multicolored Dupont Wire 40pin Male to Female, 40pin Male to Male, 40pin Female to Female Breadboard Jumper Ribbon Cables Kit Compatible with Arduino Projects - Electronics-Salon Screw Terminal Block Breakout Module, for Arduino MEGA-2560 R3. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/53770943-mega-2560-rev3-a000067-atmega2560-16mhz-54-digital-i-o](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/53770943-mega-2560-rev3-a000067-atmega2560-16mhz-54-digital-i-o) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-06-05*
