Product Details
RS019 Micro "Magician" V2 Robot Controller Arduino Compatible
Overview
- The Micro Magician V2 is the perfect controller for small robots
- At just 30mm x 60mm this board is less than half the size of a standard Arduino board but is packed full of featured needed for making a small robot
- The V2 controller is fully software compatible with the new Arduino 1.0 IDE and code can be loaded using either the ISP interface or USB
Features
- Compatible with the Arduino IDE - board type: Arduino Pro or Arduino Pro Mini (3.3V, 8MHz) w/ ATmega328
- ATmega328P processor running at 8MHz, 3.3V with 32K FLASH, 1K EEPROM and 2K SRAM
- Input voltage from 3.6V to 9V
- Built in LDO +5V, 1A regulator (input voltage must be at least 5.5V) to power external 5V devices
- Built in LDO +3.3V, 500mA regulator
- Reverse polarity protection rated at 6A for protecting servos and motor driver IC
- Reverse polarity protection rated at 3A for logic and other 3.3V devices
