Arduino in terms of hardware is the name of a microcontroller board. Arduino was created with the aim of making it easier for us to experiment or create microcontroller-based equipment, for example :


  • Automatic plant watering
  • Water level monitoring
  • Sms gateway
  • People presence detector
And there are many more that have been developed. Currently, there are various types of Arduino boards, one of which is Arduino Mega2560. Even though there are various types of Arduino, in principle the programming remains the same, only the pins are different, because each has a different number of pins..

Arduino Mega2560
Arduino mega has a size of 10 cm x 5 cm. This board is recommended for use in projects that are more complex and use a lot of digital pins for I/O. 

Arduino Mega2560 Technical Information :

  • ATmega2560 IC
  • Digital 54 Pins, with 15 Pins (PWM)
  • Analog Pins 16
  • UART pins 4
  • 16 MHZ Crystal Oscillator
  • Reset button
  • Has a USB port, power jack and ICSP header
  • Flash memory 256 KB, SRAM 8 KB and EEPROM 4 KB

Explanation :
  • The USB port is used to connect Arduino to a computer
  • The DC jack is used for an external supply source when Arduino is not connected to a computer, if Arduino is connected to a computer then the power source comes from the computer. The input voltage from this source is between 7 Vdc - 12 Vdc
  • Digital pins 0 to 53 are called digital pins because they have two states, namely 1 and 0 or 5 V and 0 V. The maximum current is 20 mA
  • Analog Pin is an analog pin (continuous value) which has an analog value of 0 - 1023, commonly used for certain sensors
  • IC ATmega2560 as a processor
  • There are 2 pins that are used as supply voltages, for example for sensors that have an output value of 3.3 Vdc and 5 Vdc
  • ICSP (In-Circuit Serial Programming) is used to program Arduino through Arduino ISP
  • Flash memory is used to store code. 8 KB of this memory is used for the bootloader
  • SRAM (Static Random Access Memory) is used to hold data temporarily when data processing occurs
  • EEPROM (Erasable Programamble Read-Only) is used to store data permanently so that it is not lost if there is no power to Arduino.
  • The 16 MHZ Crystal Oscillator functions as a signal generator with a frequency of 16 MHZ
