Arduino-Compatible Board - Pro

Description

For those not familiar with Arduino-type microcontrollers, they are like very small computers that can be given eyes and ears to interact with the world around them. So there's a software aspect (writing or modifying programming code) and a hardware aspect (attaching components to the board to create an electronic circuit). These two activities can be done at a basic level, or you can be more creative. These high-quality, Arduino-compatible boards offer a wide range of I/O features, to maximize flexibility and control in your projects. Based on the 8-bit AVR microcontroller, they are both code-efficient and power-efficient, for the best combination of speed and performance. This board is tailored to users who want a more 'build-it-yourself' approach as compared to the Uno. Designed as a lower profile board (without headers) so you can mount your own headers specific to the functions you want, or solder directly.
Built on the 'open-source electronics prototyping platform', and compatible with existing Arduino software lilbraries. About 2/3 the size of the Uno board. Flexible power source (lithium polymer battery or DC power)
ICSP header for programming microcontroller. Compatible with the Ethernet and Motor Controller Shields. This board is based on the Arduino Pro designed by SparkFun Electronics, and is released under the Creative Commons Attribution Share-Alike License.
