Arduino Due

The Arduino Due is a microcontroller board based on the Atmel SAM3X8E ARM Cortex-M3 processor. This is the first Arduino board based on a 32-bit ARM core microcontroller. It has 54 digital input/output pins (12 of which can be used as PWM outputs), 12 analog inputs, 4 UARTs (hardware serial ports), 84 MHz clock, USB OTG compatible connection, 2 DACs (digital to analog), 2 TWI, a power jack, an SPI header, a JTAG header, a reset button and a clear button. Caution: Unlike most Arduino boards, the Arduino Due board operates at 3.3 V. The maximum voltage the I/O pins can tolerate is 3.3 V. Applying voltages greater than 3.3 V. 3V at any 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 an AC-DC adapter or battery to get started. The Due is compatible with all Arduino shields that operate at 3.3V and conform to Arduino 1.0 pinout. The Due follows the 1.0 pinout: TWI: SDA and SCL pins close to AREF pin. IOREF: Allows an attached shield with the appropriate configuration to match the voltage provided by the board. This allows shield compatibility with a 3.3V board like Due and AVR based boards which operate at 5V. An unconnected pin, reserved for future use. You can find your card's warranty information here.
