ArduinoNano [A000005] – Compact ATmega328P Microcontroller with 22 Digital I/O Pins, 8 Analog Inputs, USB Connectivity, and Arduino IDE Compatibility for Prototyping and DIY Projects

Works great.

Needed this for a project and it worked so well we're using it in another.

I mounted this little wonder onto a small bread board, see jpg. I used the design from “30 Arduino Projects for the Evil Genius”, by; Simon Mork, in chapter #3, Morse Code Flasher. The design & C coding worked! The extended pins on the Nano helps in placing the Nano on to the breadboard and makes placement and soldering easier, see jpg. If you are doing Arduino Nano projects this is a great product to buy. My Nano is doing a great job of translating and flashing code.

The Arduino Nano is an incredibly versatile and compact micro-controller that has been a fantastic addition to my DIY electronics projects.Its small in size but powerful enough to handle complex tasks. The community support and abundance of libraries available make it easy to implement a wide range of functionalities. I've used it for a variety of different projects.Highly recommended for both beginners and experienced makers looking to bring their ideas to life.

Most of the non-Arduino versions of this product requires you to locate, download and install the CH340 driver. Instead, the Arduino version uses the FT232 driver. Everything is pre-installed and ready to use, right out of the box. I had it up and running in minutes. In fact, in a networking project I'm playing with, it outperformed my other microcontrolers, including a couple of larger Arduinos. If I can find the time, i will deal with the clones and their CH340 driver.

Worked very well for my project. I used it by plugging it into the 2 sides of a breadboard. It is a little bit of a struggle to get into the breadboard, but that's normal. I checked and it was the same price on the actual site, so I just got it from amazon for faster shipping. Unfortunately, it doesn't come with the cable, so I had to buy 2 from amazon (USB A to USB mini) which is crazy because this little microcontroller is already expensive as is, but that's not amazon's fault.

Working perfectly

I have bought three of these units and they are a delight to work with. These are the original Arduino boards and therefore a bit more expensive than a knock-off. But you get what you pay for and the last thing I want when buying small electronic units is a fault of some kind. These fit nicely on a bread board and make project wiring easy and compact.
