Overview:
It's
blue! It's skinny! It's the Arduino Pro! SparkFun's minimal design approach
to Arduino. This is a 5V Arduino running the 16MHz bootloader (select 'Arduino
Duemilanove w/ 328' within the Arduino software). The power switch was
moved to the side of the board (good idea Limor!) to allow control when
a shield is attached.
Please
note: The right-angle power switch is fragile. We're working on making
the switch stronger. For now, please be gentle.
Arduino
Pro does not come with connectors populated so that you can solder in any
connector or wire with any orientation you need. We recommend first time
Arduino users start with the Duemilanove. It's a great board that will
get you up and running quickly. The Arduino Pro series is meant for advanced
users that understand the limitations of system voltage (5V), lack of connectors,
and USB off board.
We
wanted Arduino Pro to be low profile. The DC power jack footprint is available,
but not populated. We recommend running the board with a LiPo battery for
better portability.
We
really wanted to minimize the cost of an Arduino. The Arduino Pro is like
the Arduino Duemilanove (same pin out) but to keep the cost low, we used
all SMD components, made it two layer, etc. This board connects directly
to the FTDI Basic Breakout board and supports auto-reset. The Arduino Pro
also works with the FTDI cable but the FTDI cable does not bring out the
DTR pin so the auto-reset feature will not work.
