The Arduino Uno Rev 3 is a microcontroller board based on the ATmega328, an 8-bit microcontroller with 32KB of Flash memory and 2KB of RAM. It has 14 digital input/output pins (of which 6 can be used as PWM outputs), 6 analog inputs, a 16 MHz crystal oscillator, a USB connection, a power jack, an ICSP header, and a reset button.
It contains everything needed to support the microcontroller; simply connect it to a computer with a USB cable or power it with an AC-to-DC adapter or battery to get started. The Uno board is the first in a series of USB boards and it is the reference model for the Arduino platform.
Arduino Uno is the ideal board for getting started with electronics, and learning the basics of how sensors and actuators work. It's also an essential tool for your rapid prototyping needs. This board is your entry to the unique Arduino experience through fun and engaging hands-on projects. Arduino Uno Rev3 is the most used and documented board in the Arduino family.
"Uno" means one in Italian and was chosen to mark the release of Arduino Software (IDE) 1.0. The Uno board and version 1.0 of Arduino Software (IDE) were the reference versions of Arduino, now evolved to newer releases. The Uno board is the first in a series of USB Arduino boards, and the reference model for the Arduino platform; for an extensive list of current, past or outdated boards (see the Arduino index of boards).
Arduino is the world’s leading open-source hardware and software ecosystem. The Company offers a range of software tools, hardware platforms and documentation enabling almost anybody to be creative with technology.
