Keyestudio MEGA 2560 R3 Development Board With USB Serial Chip CP2102

The Keyestudio MEGA 2560 R3 is a highly capable microcontroller board fully compatible with the Arduino Mega 2560 R3, designed for complex electronics and robotics projects. Featuring the reliable CP2102 USB-to-serial chip and an ATMEGA2560-16AU processor, it is ideal for South African students, educators, and makers who require extensive inputs and outputs.

Extensive input and output options

With 54 digital input/output pins and 16 analog inputs, this board provides ample connectivity for complex projects. Fifteen of the digital pins can be configured as PWM outputs, allowing you to control multiple motors, servos, and LEDs simultaneously.

High-capacity ATMEGA2560 microcontroller

Built around the ATMEGA2560-16AU running at 16 MHz, the board offers 256 KB of flash memory, 8 KB of SRAM, and 4 KB of EEPROM. This generous memory capacity makes it perfect for hosting large programs and complex robotics algorithms.

Reliable CP2102 USB serial chip

The onboard CP2102 USB-to-serial chip ensures stable and easy communication with your computer for programming and debugging. A 0.5-metre USB cable is included in the box to get you connected straight away.

Flexible power supply options

You can power the board via the USB connection, the dedicated DC power jack, or the Vin and GND pins. It operates at 5V and recommends an external input voltage of 7V to 12V DC.

Multiple hardware serial ports

Equipped with 4 independent UARTs (hardware serial ports), this board allows you to communicate with multiple serial devices like GPS modules, Bluetooth adapters, or next-generation sensors without software emulation.

Integrated ICSP header and reset

The board includes a physical reset button and an ICSP header for burning firmware directly to the ATMEGA2560-16AU chip. The firmware is pre-burnt at the factory, ensuring the board is ready to use out of the box.
