Arduin-o-lution!
BEHOLD!… the Arduino USB board has evolved from the old “Decemilia” to the new “Deumilanove”! Just like a fine wine, the Arduino keeps getting better over the course of time.
The new Deumilanove offers a few improvements over previous Arduinos including:
- automatically selects the appropriate power source (USB or external adaptor), eliminating the need for a power selection jumper.
- easy to cut trace for disabling the board’s auto-reset (and a solder jumper for re-enabling it)
- Read the complete overview of the Arduino Duemilanove:
