Arduino Leonardo Microcontroller Board Without Headers - ATmega32u4 Based

About This Product

For electronics enthusiasts and makers, this Arduino Leonardo board is a seriously versatile microcontroller platform. Based on the ATmega32u4 chip, it's got 20 digital input/output pins with 7 that can do PWM and 12 that work as analog inputs. The 16 MHz crystal oscillator keeps everything running smoothly, and the micro USB connection makes it easy to program and power from your computer. What's cool about the Leonardo is its built-in USB communication, which lets it emulate keyboards and mice - perfect for HID projects. Since this version comes without headers, you get the flexibility to solder whatever connectors work best for your project. There's a power jack for external power sources, an ICSP header for direct programming, and the reset button for when you need to start fresh. It contains everything needed to support the microcontroller - just connect via USB or use an AC-to-DC adapter or battery to get started. Whether you're building custom input devices, MIDI controllers, or any project that needs USB capabilities, the Leonardo gives you that flexibility in a compact package. The lack of pre-soldered headers means you can customize the connection method for your specific needs, which is great for permanent installations or specialized projects. It's compatible with the Arduino IDE and has a strong community behind it for support and project ideas.
