Pro Mini 5V/16MHz Arduino Compatible Atmega328P Breakout

Save space with this Pro Mini Atmega328P Breakout Board! Fully Arduino Compatible so all your Arduino programs will run just the same in a tiny form factor! Includes FTDI header pins for programming instead of a microUSB port like the Pro Micro.

This Pro Mini Breakout Board is a great alternative to an Arduino UNO in your projects. Just solder on the header & programming pins and pop onto a breadboard or solder directly into your projects to save space! Power using a 5V-12V power supply and that's it! Wire into your circuit using the pin diagram in the images above and plug into your computer's USB port using the FTDI 5V Cable to program! We love this little budget Arduino Compatible board because it is so much smaller than a standard Arduino UNO which makes it much better for placing into finished projects than a clunky UNO board and it's more economical than the Pro Micro. The main difference between the Pro Mini and Pro Micro is that the Pro Mini has header pins that require a separate FTDI USB Serial Cable for programming while the Pro Micro has an onboard microUSB port. We recommend the Pro Micro with onboard USB if you're working on a single project and don't already have the FTDI USB Serial Cable.

Features:

Our Second Smallest Arduino-Compatible Board! (Smallest is the ATtiny85 Breakout Board with 6 I/O pins)
ATmega328P running at 5V/16MHz
Supported in the Arduino Programming Software (IDE)
FTDI Serial Headers onboard for programming (requires FTDI Serial USB Cable for programming)
Supports Auto-Reset
8 Analog I/O Pins
14 Digital I/O Pins (6 are PWM capable)
Rx and Tx Hardware Serial Connections

Supports unregulated Power Supplies up to 12V via the RAW pin.
Includes Header Pins and Right Angle & Straight Programming Pins (you can use either one)

Specifications:

Main Chip: Atmega328P
FTDI Serial Headers on board
Input Power Supply: Accepts 5V - 12V on the RAW pin for powering the board
Operating Voltage: 5V (same as all other Arduino-based boards)
Frequency: 16Mhz
Comprable to the Arduino Pro Mini and other Atmega328P Breakouts
When Programming via Arduino IDE, be sure to select board type: Arduino Pro Mini (5V, 16MHz) w/ ATmega328

Initial Setup:

Plug your FTDI USB Serial Cable into your Computer
Connect the FTDI USB Serial Cable to your Pro Mini as shown in the image above
Open the Arduino IDE
In the Arduino IDE select Tools->Board->Arduino Pro Mini (5V, 16MHz) w/ ATmega328
In the Arduino IDE select File-> Examples->01.Basics->Blink
Click the Checkmark button on the top menu to verify the Blink code
Click the Arrow button to upload to your Pro Mini
You should now see your Pro Mini's Red LED blink every second.
