Adafruit Atmega32u4 Breakout Board

Toss out those FTDI cables and go USB-native with the ATmega32u4. Our newly stocked breakout board offers just the essentials for a streamlined development process. Featuring the AVR core with USB capability, it provides 32K flash, 2.5K RAM, and operates at 16MHz.

The board includes a standard AVR 6-pin ISP connector for direct programming, useful when extra space is needed. A generously sized bootload/reset button ensures ease of use, and a 500mA fuse on the USB power line adds safety. Indicator LEDs for power and user activities offer straightforward feedback, with the user LED also showing when the bootloader is active.

Compact enough to nestle perfectly into any breadboard, it also features four mounting holes for secure placements. Simply plug in and connect a mini-B USB cable to start coding right away. The built-in bootloader eliminates the need for an AVR programmer, streamlining your workflow.

For those looking to explore the USB core, the LUFA library is an excellent resource, packed with examples for nearly every type of device. Step up your microcontroller skills with this efficient and capable breakout board.
