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.

USB-C versus USB Micro connectors are turning into one of the holy wars of our time. Rather than be left on the wrong side of the divide [Stefan S] has come up with his own USB-C version of of an A… ...

Meanwhile, the Arduino Mega is getting the same USB chip along with an ATMega2560 processor with twice the memory. Right now only 128K is available, but that's a software limitation and they're ...

For instance, on the Nano there is an FT232RL between the USB connector and the microprocessor (on an Arduino Uno board, a small ATMEGA8U2 is used instead of an FTDI chip, but the concept is the ...

The Arduino Nano and Uno are equipped with very similar processors (the chip that essentially serves as the brain of the board). The Nano features an ATmega328, while the Uno sports an ATmega328P.
