Arduino Leonardo with Headers [A000057]

super nice item

From the best I can tell this is a genuine Arduino. Works fine and does what they say it can do. The nice thing about the Leonardo is that you can set up the USB interface to look like a HID (keyboard or mouse etc.)

In my case, my arduino has come up with a problem (he has a problem when loading a project) but it is a problem that can be solved, so I put 3 stars and not 5.

The Arduino Leonardos worked with no issues. Uploaded code and they are off and running doing their thing. Great purchase!

Genuine Arduino shipped, but never connected through USB (on board programmer issues). Had to use ICSP headers and a separate programmer in AVR Studio to get code onto it.

Exactly as advertised. Good boards.

Well in truth theres only one uart but has a virtual serial port (usb) thats infinitely useful in debugging apps where the uart serial is in use. I will be buying Leonardos from now on or perhaps the mega clones from China which even lower cost.

Each Arduino has its own unique set of features while maintaining the compatibility that defines the Arduino standard. Leonardos strong suit, for me, is its ability to communicate with two serial IOs at the same time for a couple of bucks more than the workhorse UNO. This saves a lot of time when talking to the Arduino thru the USB port and the Arduino talking to another serial device (e.g., a XBee radio) at the same time. No more plugging and unplugging USB cables every time you want to change a line of code. WOW!

What can I say? This is the real deal, and not one of the cheaper knock offs. If you need an genuine Arduino Leonardo (with headers), this is what you are looking for.

$35 Leonardo board. Its a great board, no complaints, but if I had to do it over again, Id but the $25 UNO board.
