Tag: Arduino Mega 2560

The Arduino Mega 2560 is designed for projects that require more I/O lines, more sketch memory and more RAM. With 54 digital I/O pins, 16 analog inputs and a larger space for your sketch it is the recommended board for 3D printers and robotics projects. This gives your projects plenty of room and opportunities maintaining the simplicity and effectiveness of the Arduino platform.

The Arduino Mega 2560 can be purchased from many vendors; however, I always recommend purchasing directly from Arduino.
