DATASHEET

The Arduino Mega 2560 is a microcontroller board based on the ATmega2560. It has 54 digital input/output pins (of which 15 can be used as PWM outputs), 16 analog inputs, 4 UARTs (hardware serial ports), a 16 MHz crystal oscillator, a USB connection, a power jack, an ICSP header, and a reset button.

Microcontroller
EEPROM

The ATmega2560 features 4kb (4096 bytes) of EEPROM, a memory which is not erased when powered off.

Pin
54 digital & 16 analog pins

The Mega 2560 has 54 digital pins, whereas 15 supports PWM, and 16 analog input pins.

Communication
