Arduino Leonardo ATmega32u4 without headers
Discontinued: This product has been discontinued.
The Arduino Leonardo is a microcontroller board based on the ATmega32U4, featuring built-in USB communication that allows it to appear as a keyboard, mouse, or serial device to a connected computer — no secondary USB chip required. This version ships without headers for an ultra-thin, lightweight form factor ideal for embedded projects and custom installations.
With 20 digital I/O pins (7 PWM, 12 analog inputs), a 16MHz crystal oscillator, micro USB connection, power jack footprint, and ICSP header breakout, the Leonardo contains everything needed to get started. Also available with pre-soldered headers for immediate breadboard and shield use.
Key Features
- Native USB – Built-in USB on the ATmega32U4 enables keyboard, mouse, and serial device emulation
- No Headers – Ultra-thin and lightweight; solder your own headers or wire directly
- 20 Digital I/O Pins – 7 usable as PWM outputs, with 40mA per pin
- 12 Analog Inputs – 10-bit resolution on pins A0–A11
- Micro USB – Connect directly to a computer for power and programming
Specifications
- Microcontroller – ATmega32U4
- Operating Voltage – 5V
- Input Voltage – 7–12V recommended
- Digital I/O Pins – 20
- PWM Channels – 7
- Analog Input Channels – 12
- Flash Memory – 32KB (4KB used by bootloader)
- SRAM – 2.5KB
- EEPROM – 1KB
- Clock Speed – 16MHz
Note: The Leonardo differs from the Arduino Uno in its USB handling and is best suited for users with some Arduino experience. Shield compatibility is limited — the proto shield is recommended. Requires Arduino IDE 1.0.1 or higher.
Ideal For
- Embedded projects requiring a thin, headerless board
- USB HID projects (custom keyboards, mice, game controllers)
- Custom installations with direct wiring
