The Company offers a range of software tools, hardware platforms and documentation enabling almost anybody to be creative with technology. Originally started as a research project by Massimo Banzi, David Cuartielles, Tom Igoe, Gianluca Martino, and David Mellis at the Interaction Design Institute of Ivrea in the early 2000s, it builds upon the Processing project, a language for learning how to code within the context of the visual arts developed by Casey Reas and Ben Fry as well as a thesis project by Hernando Barragan about the Wiring board. WHY ARDUINO? Inexpensive Arduino boards are relatively inexpensive compared to other microcontroller platforms. The least expensive version of the Arduino module can be assembled by hand, and even the pre-assembled Arduino modules cost not so high. Simple, clear programming environment The Arduino Software (IDE) is easy-to-use for beginners, yet flexible enough for advanced users to take advantage of as well. For teachers, it's conveniently based on the Processing programming environment, so students learning to program in that environment will be familiar with how the Arduino IDE works. Open source and extensible software The Arduino software is published as open source tools, available for extension by experienced programmers. The language can be expanded through C++ libraries, and people wanting to understand the technical details can make the leap from Arduino to the AVR C programming language on which it's based. Similarly, you can add AVR-C code directly into your Arduino programs if you want to. Open source and extensible hardware The plans of the Arduino boards are published under a Creative Commons license, so experienced circuit designers can make their own version of the module, extending it and improving it. Even relatively inexperienced users can build the breadboard version of the module in order to understand how it works and save money. ARDUINO CLASSICS Message from Massimo Banzi - co-founder β€œThe Arduino philosophy is based on making designs rather than talking about them. It is a constant search for faster and more powerful ways to build better prototypes. We have explored many prototyping techniques and developed ways of thinking with our hands.” MOST POPULAR OF CLASSICS Arduino Uno R3 The ideal board for getting started with electronics, through fun and engaging hands-on projects.

Review: Great programmer board - It was secured in a neat package and the products work well for anything you want to use for a project or anything that deals with coding. Review: This is a gem! - General: This little nugget of a development board is awesome! I cut my teeth on the Arduino UNO. Now, I am ready to build a useful project that will perform some keyboard emulation. This board with headers attached fits nicely into the breadboard. After I get the circuit working just right, I will solder it to a prototyping board. Usage: I already had the Arduino development software loaded on my Windows XP laptop. When I connected the Micro for the first time, the computer automatically recognized the Micro and installed drivers. When I loaded my first sketch (program) the Micro communicated to the computer that the Arduino bootloader would be needed, and it installed automatically! ## Features - ATmega32U4 Microcontroller: Powered by the ATmega32U4, the Arduino Micro offers 32KB of flash memory, 2.5KB of SRAM, and 1KB of EEPROM, providing sufficient resources for advanced applications. - Integrated USB Interface: The onboard USB interface allows the board to communicate directly with a PC or act as a USB device (keyboard, mouse, etc.), utilizing the native USB functionality of the ATmega32U4. - Full Arduino IDE Compatibility: Easily program the Arduino Micro through the Arduino IDE with a simple USB connection, supporting libraries, sketches, and a wide range of shields designed for Arduino platforms. - Compact, Breadboard-Friendly Design: Measuring just 1.8" x 0.7", the Arduino Micro is ideal for tight spaces and breadboard integration, offering 20 digital I/O pins (7 PWM outputs and 12 analog inputs). - Pre-Soldered Headers for Easy Integration: Equipped with pre-soldered male headers, the Arduino Micro simplifies integration with external circuits, sensors, and modules, reducing assembly time and effort for developers. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00AFY2S56 | | Best Sellers Rank | #347 in Single Board Computers (Computers & Accessories) | | Brand | Arduino | | Built-In Media | Microprocessor | | CPU Model | Core i3 | | CPU Speed | 16 MHz | | Compatible Devices | Keyboard, Mouse, Personal Computer | | Connectivity Technology | USB | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 605 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 07640152111136 | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 4"L x 3"W x 1"H | | Item Weight | 9 Grams | | Manufacturer | Arduino | | Memory Storage Capacity | 32 KB | | Mfr Part Number | A000059 | | Model Name | A000053 | | Model Number | ARD-A000059 | | Operating System | Linux, Windows, Macos | | Processor Brand | Microchip Technology | | Processor Count | 1 | | Processor Speed | 16 MHz | | RAM Memory Installed | 2.5 KB | | RAM Memory Technology | SRAM | | Ram Memory Installed Size | 2.5 KB | | Smart Home Compatibility | Not Smart Home Compatible | | Total Usb Ports | 1 | | UPC | 758399181809 | | Warranty Description | as described in the official website | | Wireless Compability | Bluetooth | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Arduino - **CPU Model:** Core i3 - **CPU Socket:** LGA 1150 - **Chipset Type:** ATmega32U4 based - **Compatible Devices:** Keyboard, Mouse, Personal Computer - **Compatible Processors:** ATmega32U4, ATmega32U2, ATmega32U6 - **Memory Clock Speed:** 16 MHz - **Memory Storage Capacity:** 32 KB - **Model Name:** A000053 - **RAM Memory Technology:** SRAM ## Images ![Micro with Headers [A000053] - ATmega32U4 Microcontroller, 16MHz, 20 Digital I/O Pins, 7 PWM Outputs, USB HID Support, Compact Design for Embedded Projects, Compatible with Arduino IDE - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51S4rKOnjxL.jpg) ![Micro with Headers [A000053] - ATmega32U4 Microcontroller, 16MHz, 20 Digital I/O Pins, 7 PWM Outputs, USB HID Support, Compact Design for Embedded Projects, Compatible with Arduino IDE - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61CwFvz038L.jpg) ![Micro with Headers [A000053] - ATmega32U4 Microcontroller, 16MHz, 20 Digital I/O Pins, 7 PWM Outputs, USB HID Support, Compact Design for Embedded Projects, Compatible with Arduino IDE - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/613XIC5z62L.jpg) ![Micro with Headers [A000053] - ATmega32U4 Microcontroller, 16MHz, 20 Digital I/O Pins, 7 PWM Outputs, USB HID Support, Compact Design for Embedded Projects, Compatible with Arduino IDE - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/514VnaoiJ4L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: I'd like to dd a GPS module to this, which is the smallest and best option I hve?** A: Look into Adafruit GPS modules compatible with the arduino. I know they have shield GPS modules for the uno so you can probably find an unshielded version to use on the micro. Basically go to adafruit.com and take a look. They also helped design the micro so best chance for compatibility. **Q: What are the dimensions (and weight) of the board? Amazon only seems to list the packaging dimensions.** A: From the Arduino web sitec http://arduino.cc/en/Main/ArduinoBoardMicro "The maximum length and width of the Micro PCB are 4.8cm and 1.77cm respectively, with the USB connector extending beyond the former dimension." Height about 20mm (defined by header pins) Weight 7 g. Also check out the Nano board. **Q: does it have the I2C bus ?** A: Hi, yes! Here is a tutorial with more info: http://tronixstuff.com/2010/10/20/tutorial-arduino-and-the-i2c-bus/ **Q: is this as powerful as the Arduino mega?** A: Simply, no. But powerful for its small size. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great programmer board *by S***A on July 13, 2023* It was secured in a neat package and the products work well for anything you want to use for a project or anything that deals with coding. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is a gem! *by P***L on March 4, 2014* General: This little nugget of a development board is awesome! I cut my teeth on the Arduino UNO. Now, I am ready to build a useful project that will perform some keyboard emulation. This board with headers attached fits nicely into the breadboard. After I get the circuit working just right, I will solder it to a prototyping board. Usage: I already had the Arduino development software loaded on my Windows XP laptop. When I connected the Micro for the first time, the computer automatically recognized the Micro and installed drivers. When I loaded my first sketch (program) the Micro communicated to the computer that the Arduino bootloader would be needed, and it installed automatically! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ So powerful in such a small size *by J***E on July 20, 2014* I love anything and everything Arduino, I love the micro because it is a small 17 pin long board that fits on all of my breadboards. It is really helpful that it has the regular arduino voltage regulator on it so that I can use all my normal power supply. I was amazed when I locked at the pin layout because so many of the pins have multiple purposes. Some of the I/O pins also work as analog pins and PWM pins. It has a total of 6 Analog in pins (That is the same as the uno!). I love that it uses the same programming environment and I can upload all my codes to it. The one odd thing is that it doesn't come with a cable to write to it, which wasn't a problem for me because it is a pretty standard port, just make sure it is a data cable (not just a charging cable). Overall, I love it. It works perfectly and fits the small form factor that I need sometimes. ## Frequently Bought Together - Arduino Micro with Headers [A000053] - ELEGOO 120pcs Multicolored Dupont Wire 40pin Male to Female, 40pin Male to Male, 40pin Female to Female Breadboard Jumper Ribbon Cables Kit Compatible with Arduino Projects - DAOKI 100Pcs 6x6x5 mm Miniature Micro Momentary Tactile Tact Touch Push Button Switch Quality Switch SPST Miniature/Mini/Micro/Small PCB --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/1968724-micro-with-headers-a000053-atmega32u4-microcontroller-16mhz-20-digital-i](https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/1968724-micro-with-headers-a000053-atmega32u4-microcontroller-16mhz-20-digital-i) --- *Product available on Desertcart Saudi Arabia* *Store origin: SA* *Last updated: 2026-06-03*
