You can also power power the Arduino microcontroller from the 5V pin. You cannot power the board with the barrel jack and VIN GPIO at the same time, because there is a polarity protection diode, connecting between the positive of the barrel jack to the VIN pin, rated at 1A. Hello, I resulted very convenient realziar a table to better assign the pins in one of my projects. Therefore you are able to power the Uno with an external 9 Volt battery. The voltage has to be between 7V and 12V. VIN Pin: If you use an external power supply like a battery, you can use the VIN pin.If you buy a DC power jack, make sure the power adapter of the plug supplies a voltage between 7V and 12V. TFT shields that have been specifically designed for Uno or Mega will provide the necessary level shifters. You must find the appropriate adapter Shield or wire up 13 or 21 level shifters by hand if you want to use a 5V Uno or Mega. DC Power Jack: It is possible to use the DC power Jack as power supply. TFT displays that do not mate with an Arduino are generally 3.3V GPIO.

The standard USB connection delivers 5V and allows you to draw 500mA in total. USB cable: The most popular and also the easiest way to power the microcontroller is via USB cable.Like the Arduino Uno, you can power your Arduino Mega in three save ways because a voltage regulator provides a regulated and stable voltage for the ATmega2560 microprocessor: In my opinion you should be save to draw a current up to 100mA. An Arduino UNO with the R3 layout (1.0 pinout), also has the SDA (data line) and SCL (clock line) pin headers close to the AREF pin. The LP2985-33DBVR has a maximum output current of 150mA but on the official Arduino website, the maximum current is limited to 50mA. The maximum current draw from the USB connection is therefore reduced to 500mA.īecause the Arduino Mega has 3.3V pins to supply external electrical devices, there is a second voltage regulator build in, that reduces the voltage from 5V to 3.3V.

There is no need for a voltage regulator because the USB connection is already regulated by the USB output from your PC or laptop. The Arduino Mega can also be powered via the USB port. Red are differences, where the functionality has moved on Mega2560 compared to UNO. Green have the same function and position as the Arduino UNO R3. The maximum output current of the LD1117S50CTR is 800mA. As per diagra of Arduino Mega 2560 Reference Design diagram: Inspired by Nick's UNO pinout I did a similar one for the Arduino Mega2560 R3. Besides a higher input voltage than 12V has no advantage. But an input voltage between 7V and 12V is recommended to use the Arduino Mega over an extended period of time because otherwise the voltage regulator produces a lot of heat that can damage the microcontroller. The LD1117S50CTR provides a stable 5V output for the ATmega2560 and has a maximum input voltage of 15V.
