Iduino DUE Mini
Overview
Iduino DUE Mini board derives from Arduino Due. It is completely compatible with Arduino Due. Users could program it with Arduino IDE(Arduino v1.5 Beta:).
While we got the Arduino DUE board, our feeling on it is: oh, so complicated! While we found we could program it through both USB port, we think, why not remove
one and leave users more chances to develope on another It could make the board simple. As ATmega16U2 circuit takes very much space on the board, we decide to
remove it. And all the pins for external programmer are broken out.
Of course ,extenal programmer is more cost-efficient. Similar with boards such as Arduino Mini or Arduino Pro, many board could share one external programmer.
If you need 10 boards to build your projects, you only need one external programmer. That will save you much money.
About DUE Mini USB/Serial Adapter
The DUE Mini USB/Serial Adapter is designed based on the ATmega16U2 circuit on Arduino DUE. With the bended female header, users could plug in the header to
Iduino DUE Mini board.
