GENERAL INFORMATION

MICRO 1284P is an open-source microcontroller based on the ATmega1284P. It features 24 digital input/output pins (of which 6 can be PWM outputs), 8 analog input pins, a 16 MHz ceramic resonator, an ICSP pin header, a reset button, and an LED is connected to pin 13. To power the microcontroller you can use the 5 volts of the serial or from 7 volts to 35 volts from the Vin pin (use one of the two methods, not both together). With its small size it allows its insertion in very compact projects.

HOW TO UPLOAD SKETCHES USING SERIAL PORT (UART)

First of all you need a USB TTL FTDI (like this https://t.ly/cMAf or this https://t.ly/RZF8) that will allow the sketch to be written to the microcontroller. First, however, preliminary operation must be carried out: 

• Burning the bootloader (visit this link for more information: https://www.arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/BuiltInExamples/ArduinoToBreadboard)
