Description of ELEGOO MEGA R3 Board ATmega 2560 + USB Cable for Arduino IDE Projects - RoHS Compliant

The Mega is 100% compatible with Arduino IDE and most of the shields are designed for the Arduino mega R3,RoHS Compliant. The chip is Atmega + 2560-16au and 16u2, same with the official version. Improved and expert version: 1. 0 pinout: added SDA and SCL pins that are near to the AREF pin. Stronger RESET circuit. Use 5. 5 * 2. 1mm DC barrel jack (compatible with 5. 5 * 2. 5mm DC barrel jack). 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.

Excellent Arduino Board for DIY Projects!

According to my experience, this board is a great choice for those who love tinkering with electronics and programming. It is easy to use and very versatile. The ATMEGA2560 chip is powerful enough to handle complex projects, while the ATMEGA16U2 provides reliable USB communication. However, the lack of onboard Wi-Fi or Bluetooth can be a downside for those who need wireless connectivity in their projects. Nonetheless, this board is a great option for anyone looking to explore the world of…

Pros
  • Easy to program and use with Arduino software.
Cons
  • May require some knowledge of programming to fully utilize its capabilities.

Compatible with Arduino Shields

No design issues as discussed in another review (header spacing). At this point, this block appears to be compatible with the Arduino Mega. Nice that a USB cable is included. Also, the headers are screen printed on the sides, which is very convenient. The incorrect spacing issue in the other review is not a bug, it maintains an identical design to the original Uno and later Mega title spacing. The Arduino shields are a perfect match. The attached photo shows an Adafruit LCD connected to an…

Pros
  • Great range
Cons
  • All ok

Received a defective circuit board, but it was quickly replaced.

At first I thought it was a bug in my code, but after testing several different Mega2560 boards with the same code, I found out that this block has a voltage regulator bug. USB, it works fine, but when using the 12V power connector on the plug, the voltage regulator overheats and the board starts to respond erratically, randomly shutting down and restarting. - EDIT - After the manufacturer contacted them and offered to replace the circuit board, it turned out I had a bad unit and the…
