Review on πŸ”Œ Nano-Micro-Nosolder Board ATmega328P: Compact USB Nano V3.0 Controller - 5V 16M by April Taylor

Revainrating 4 out of 5

This is the Nano you are looking for

Finally the Arduino Nano that comes with micro USB connectors instead of the giant mini USB. So far they are working without any problems. The only thing that would be better would be if they had USB ports. However, micro USB is not terrible. Too bad the official Arduino nano boards don't have micro USB. That makes these boards better than the official Arduino product. Update: I originally ordered them in July 2019, February 2020 and received the boards with the regular atmega328p bootloader. I ordered a few more on December 2nd, 2020 and received the old bootloader. I guess I'll have to do an update as it might be confusing if I mix up boards in the future. Moral of the story: emakefun seems to be a bit inconsistent lately (December 2020), which is a shame because I like most of their products. EDIT: Unfortunately, these reviews refer to two different products. 1. emakefun nano 2. emakefun rf-nano containing nRF24L01(+) on the same board. The first section of this review relates to the first. The section following this comment refers to the latter. The rf-nano manual has a significant error on page 20 where the table says pin 7 = CSN and pin 4 = CE. Actually pin 9 is CSN and pin 10 is CE. Apart from an error in the manual, the RF nano boards work very well. I'll use them whenever I can for any project that needs nRF24L01(+) for communication as the board is slightly larger than a standard Arduino Nano. Well done emakefun! - but update your guide.

Pros
  • Finally bought it
Cons
  • Can I add something
