Arduino MEGA 2560 Pro – Compact ATmega2560 Board with CH340G

Name: Arduino MEGA 2560 Pro (Compact) – CH340G, 54 I/O
Brand: PCBoard.ca
Price: 15.99 USD
Availability: InStock
Rating: 5 (4 reviews)

The Arduino MEGA 2560 Pro delivers the full power and compatibility of a standard Arduino MEGA 2560 in a significantly smaller, project-ready form factor. Designed for embedded and space-constrained applications, this board is ideal when you need maximum I/O, multiple serial ports, and rock-solid reliability without the bulk of the full-size MEGA.

Built around the ATmega2560 microcontroller and a proven CH340G USB-to-UART interface, the MEGA 2560 Pro works seamlessly with the Arduino IDE and existing MEGA 2560 sketches — no code changes required.

Why Choose the MEGA 2560 Pro from PCBoard.ca?

Compact design – Only 38 × 54 mm, perfect for embedded systems

Power Options and Recommendations

The MEGA 2560 Pro can be powered via:

USB (Micro‑USB or USB‑C variant, depending on model)
5V pin (regulated external 5V supply)
VIN (recommended 6–12V DC)

Note: The onboard voltage regulators are linear. For best performance and heat management, it is recommended to supply 6–12V on VIN rather than higher voltages.

Compatibility & Setup

Fully compatible with the Arduino IDE
Select “Arduino Mega or Mega 2560” when uploading sketches
Uses the CH340G driver (available for Windows, macOS, and Linux)
Pin functions and behavior match the standard MEGA 2560

If you’ve used a regular Arduino MEGA before, you’ll feel right at home.

Common Use Cases

Robotics and automation systems
CNC controllers and motion projects
3D printers
Large LED or lighting installations
Embedded and permanent installations
Educational labs and prototyping
