Plug in your board and wait for Windows to begin its driver installation process.
#LEARN4LIFE DRIVERS ED 2 INSTALL#
The driver will install automatically when we install arduino IDE at windows 10. Then the green power LED (labeled PWR) should go on. Connect the Seeeduino V4.2 to your computer with the Micro-USB Cable. Prepare a Seeeduino V4.2 and a Micro-USB cable. They work automatically, they let you know when the board is sending or receiving data respectively. The TX and RX LED indicators are connected to TX and RX of USB-to-UART chip. This can be used as an on-board LED indicator for programs/sketches. The LED is connected to D13 pin of the board. This is not the case in other Arduino boards where the button is placed on top making it hard to access. This button is conveniently placed on the side to allow you to reset the Seeeduino board even when a shield is placed on top. Slide switch is used to change the logic level and operating voltage of the board to either 5V or 3.3V. This makes Seeeduino V4.2 to be used a USB2UART utility board. These pads can be used to interact with other UART devices by putting the on-board ATmega328 in reset mode. The SPI pins in this port: MISO, SCK, and MOSI, are also connected to digital pins 12, 13, and 11 respectively just like those of the Arduino Uno. This is the ICSP connection for the ATmega328P, it is located in the standard ICSP/SPI position for Arduino Uno, Due, Mega, and Leonardo compatible hardware (e.g. The UART Grove connector is connected to digital pins 0 and 1 for RX and TX respectively. The I2C Grove connector is also connected to analog pin A4 and A5 for SDA and SCL respectively if you would like to use those pins instead. In addition, we sell independent Grove connectors to help you make our own sensor connections. SeeedStudio has a variety of sensors/devices that can make use of this I2C or UART connection. For example, when using DC motors or other high power devices. The DC power jack allows your Seeeduino board to be powered from a wall adapter so that you can supply more power to your project if needed.

USB Port is used to connect the board to your PC for programming and for powering up. The pin-out and alternate functions of various pins of Seeeduino v4.2 are shown in the pin-out diagram. The images below show an overview of Seeeduino v4.2 hardware features. Want to make something awesome, maybe just a Seeeduino v4.2 and some Groves is enough.ġ.Cancel some pad on the top left corner.ģ.Improve DCDC circuit to get a better performanceĥ.Change some silkscreen and part location There is a switch to choose the system's supply voltage either 3.3V or 5V, which is very useful if you want to set the system to 3.3V to interact with low voltage sensors.įinally, the three on-board Grove interfaces can make your board connect to Grove modules easily. Also, you can power the board via a DC Jack input (7 to 15V DC) is acceptable. You can program the board via a micro-USB cable. This makes it easy to solder additional pin-headers to plug into breadboard or create your own attachment/shield with 0.1" dot-matrix general purpose PCBs.

The board comes with an additional set of through-hole pads for all pins. Seeeduino v4.2 is based the Arduino UNO bootloader, an ATmega16U2 as a UART-to-USB converter (basically work like an FTDI USB2UART chip). Seeeduino v4.2 is feature rich, much more stable, easy-to-use and even good looking. We think Seeeduino v4.2 is one of the best Arduino derivatives/compatibles available. Seeeduino v4.2 is an Open Source, Arduino-compatible ATmega328 MCU development board.
