Arduino Mega 2560 Rev3 - A000067

Welcome to the new Mega 2560 Rev3, the 8-bit board with 54 digital pins, 16 analog inputs, and 4 serial ports. If you are looking to upgrade your Arduino board, this is the board for you!

The Arduino Mega 2560 is a microcontroller board based on the ATmega2560. It has 54 digital input/output pins (of which 15 can be used as PWM outputs), 16 analog inputs, 4 UARTs (hardware serial ports), a 16 MHz crystal oscillator, a USB connection, a power jack, an ICSP header, and a reset button. It contains everything needed to support the microcontroller; simply connect it to a computer with a USB cable, or power it with an AC-to-DC adapter or battery to get started. The Mega 2560 board is compatible with most shields designed for the Uno and the former boards Duemilanove or Diecimila.

We also offer many books on coding, electronics, and more for beginers and children HERE.

Getting Started

Find inspiration for your projects with the Mega 2560 board from Arduino's tutorial platform Project Hub.

You can find in the Getting Started with Arduino MEGA2560 Rev 3 section all the information you need to configure your board, use the Arduino Software (IDE), and start tinkering with coding and electronics.

From the Tutorials section you can find examples from libraries and built-in sketches as well other useful information to expand your knowledge of the Arduino hardware and software.
