Interested in making neat stuff with an Arduino-compatible board but not sure where to start? This kit includes all the pieces needed to complete over 20 different circuit and projects. Basically everything you need to be playing within minutes of its arrival. No soldering required, works with Mac, Windows and Linux! New! As of March 28, 2018 we've done a big refresh on this kit, to add more stuff like a character LCD, Infrared remote and...

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 Metro Mini or a Trinket M0, but when size isn't as much of a concern, we reach for an Adafruit METRO. New! We've updated this product to our Adafruit Metro 328, a...

Heard about Arduino IDE-compatibles but not sure how to start? The Adafruit Metro is an ATmega328-based (like a lot of our own products) development board. Since it is shaped the same, and code/shield-compatible with the Arduino UNO R3 design, our Adafruit Metro is easy to use and hacker friendly and this is the perfect beginner kit for learning how to use the Adafruit Metro!  This bundle is designed to get you started quickly and...

This budget pack is an optimized collection of parts and pieces to experiment with Adafruit Metro 328 and the Arduino IDE at home, school or work. Great for students and those that want to get their feet wet, no soldering required! Includes the Adafruit Metro 328 with thru-hole headers.   The Metro is our take on the most maker-friendly Arduino-compatible board. It is the culmination of years of playing with electronics: we wanted to make a...
