It uses the original chip, and a 16 MHz high-quality quartz resonators is present on the board. Even though it is an Embed board, it is solid stable as the Mega Board. The Mega Pro Embed functionalities are identical to the Arduino Mega 2560. It has a compact form factor of 38 x 54mm and is an excellent solution for developing projects based on ATmega2560. This board is compatible with the Arduino Mega 2560.
The boards might look slightly different than in the pictures.
Please Note: This is a generic board, and can be manufactured by a variety of different manufacturers. It is assembled with a genuine Atmel ATmega2560 microcontroller and the low cost CH340G USB-UART interface. This is a low cost and miniature version of the popular Arduino Mega 2560.
