Arduino has announced the new UNO R4 board family for prototyping and learning. The new models feature a faster microcontroller, a USB-C connector, improved power, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth LE, and more.

Arduino has created a Renesas RA4M1 microcontroller board in its Nano form-factor. Called Nano R4, it follows the Uno R4, the first Arduino to use the RA4M1. “Whether you’re working on a connected ...

The Arduino UNO R4 boasts a 3x performance increase over the UNO R3 and , in addition, SRAM has been upgraded from 2kB to 32kB, and flash memory from 32kB to 256kB to support more complex projects.

“Designed for maximum compatibility, the Uno R4 maintains the same form factor, shield compatibility, and 5V operating voltage as its predecessor,” said Arduino. The Cortex-M4 runs at 48MHz alongside ...
