About this item

The Arduino Due is the first official Arduino board to feature a 32-bit ARM Cortex-M3 microcontroller, specifically the Atmel SAM3X8E CPU. This powerful processor runs at an impressive 84 MHz clock speed, offering significantly higher performance compared to traditional 8-bit Arduino boards. The Due is designed for complex projects requiring enhanced processing power, such as advanced robotics, audio processing, and real-time data acquisition.The board provides 54 digital input/output pins, including 12 PWM outputs, and 12 analog inputs, enabling extensive connectivity options for sensors, actuators, and other peripherals. It supports 4 UARTs (hardware serial ports) for simultaneous serial communication with multiple devices. The Arduino Due also features 2 DAC (digital-to-analog converters), allowing it to generate true analog output signals, ideal for audio applications.Connectivity is further enhanced with a USB OTG capable connection, which allows the board to act as both a host and a device. Additional interfaces include 2 TWI (I2C) ports, an SPI header, a JTAG header for debugging, a power jack, and essential control buttons like reset and erase. The Due runs at 3.3V logic level, so care must be taken when interfacing with 5V devices.
