Card with ATmega328 microcontroller, powered by USB or DC jack at 7-9V (equipped with on / off switch). It features 20 GPIO pins, 6 can be used as analog inputs and 6 as PWM output. It has hardware ports for SPI, I2C and UART. 16MHz clock speed. The logic level of the GPIO ports is 5V, but it is easily convertible by cutting and soldering a jumper. Equipped with an FTDI USB-serial converter that allows you to use a serial monitor from your PC to send and receive data and to program the ATmega via USB, thanks to the preloaded Optiboot bootloader. There are 4 LEDs, one for power on, two on the RX / TX channels for the UART and one on digital pin 13 (PB5). Version without headers, we also have one with already welded headers.

Description

We sure love the ATmega328 here at Adafruit, and we use them a lot for our own projects. The processor has plenty of GPIO, Analog inputs, hardware UART SPI and I2C, timers and PWM galore - just enough for most simple projects. When we need to go small, we use a Pro Trinket 3V or 5V, but when size isn't as much of a concern, and a USB-serial converter is required, we reach for an Adafruit METRO.

METRO is the culmination of years of playing with AVRs: we wanted to make a development boardhat it is easy to use and is hacker friendly.

ATmega328 brains - This popular chip has 32KB of flash (1/2 K is reserved for the bootloader), 2KB of RAM, clocked at 16MHz
Power the METRO with 7-9V polarity protected DC or the micro USB connector to any 5V USB source. The 2.1mm DC jack has an on / off switch next to it so you can turn off your setup easily. The METRO will automagically switch between USB and DC.
METRO has 20 GPIO pins, 6 of which are Analog in as well, and 2 of which are reserved for the USB-serial converter. There's also 6 PWMs available on 3 timers (1 x 16-bit, 2 x 8-bit). There's a hardware SPI port, hardware I2C port and hardware UART to USB.
GPIO Logic level is 5V but by cutting and soldering closed a jumper, you can easily convert it to 3.3V logic
USB to Serial converter, there's a hardware USB to Serial converter that can be used by any computer to listen / send data to the METRO, and can also be used to launch and update code via the bootloader
Four indicator LEDs, on the front edge of the PCB, for easy debugging. One green power LED, two RX / TX LEDs for the UART, and a red LED connected to pin PB5
Easy reprogramming, comes pre-loaded with the Optiboot bootloader, which is supported by avrdude and only uses 512 bytes.
Beautiful styling by PaintYourDragon and Bruce Yan, in Adafruit Black with gold plated pads.
Works with all Adafruit designed shields!

This version of the METRO 328 comes as a fully assembled and tested development board but without any headers attached. We do include some through-hole headers that you can solder on if you like, or you can solder wires or headers directly to the breakout pads. We also include 4 rubber bumpers to keep it from slipping off your desk.

Mac & Windows People! Don't forget to grab & install the FTDI VCP drivers from FTDI to make the COM / Serial port show up right! The default drivers may not support this FTDI chip!
