Arduino Due (Funduino)
If you need a faster, more powerful processor than the Mega 2560, DAC's, 12 bit resolution on ADCs and DACs, USB 2.0 host support...then the Arduino Due is the clear choice.
This is not the obsolete Duemilanov. It is the next step up from the Arduino Mega 2560 R3 and is a micro-controller based on the Atmel SAM3X8E ARM Cortex-M3 CPU.
It has 54 digital input/output pins (of which 12 can be used as PWM outputs), 12 analog inputs, 4 UARTs (hardware serial ports), a 84 MHz clock, an USB OTG capable connection, 2 DAC (digital to analog), 2 TWI, a power jack, an SPI header, a JTAG header, a reset button and an erase button.
Warning: Unlike other Arduino boards, the Arduino Due board runs at 3.3V. The maximum voltage that the I/O pins can tolerate is 3.3V. Providing higher voltages, like 5V to an I/O pin could damage the board.
The board contains everything needed to support the microcontroller; simply connect it to a computer with a micro-USB cable or power it with a AC-to-DC adapter or battery to get started.
The Due is compatible with all Arduino shields that work at 3.3V and are compliant with the 1.0 Arduino pinout.
** Includes free USB cable **
