SparkFun RedBoard Edge

The SparkFun RedBoard Edge is a reworked RedBoard designed for panel mounting in custom project enclosures. It separates "user-facing" components (USB, power, LEDs, reset) from "project-facing" connections (screw terminals, Qwiic, grouped GPIO), making it easy to build clean, finished-looking products.

Fully compatible with the standard RedBoard and Arduino UNO, you can prototype on a regular RedBoard and move your project to the Edge without any code changes. Program it over Micro-USB using the Arduino IDE — just select "Arduino UNO" from the board menu.

Key Features

• Panel-Mount Design – User-facing and project-facing sides separated for enclosure integration
• Qwiic Connector – I2C plug-and-play for SparkFun Qwiic boards
• Grouped Pin Layout – Pins organised by function (PWM, ADC, SPI) with parallel power rails
• 2-Pin Screw Terminal – 5 mm terminal connected to VIN through the front panel toggle switch
• Enclosure Grounding – Standoffs next to barrel jack connect to USB shield or board ground
• Right-Angle Power Switch – Front-panel accessible toggle
• 4 Status LEDs – RX, TX, Pin 13, and Power indicators on the user-facing side

Specifications

• Microcontroller – ATmega328P (Arduino UNO compatible)
• Input Voltage – 7–15 V DC (barrel jack) or USB powered
• USB – Micro-USB for programming and power
• Power Rails – 5 V and 3.3 V (4-pin headers), plus 5 V and GND along pin groupings
• Programming – Arduino IDE, select "Arduino UNO"

Ideal For

• Custom enclosure and panel-mount projects
• Building finished-looking Arduino products
• Prototyping with easy transition from standard RedBoard
• Projects requiring clean separation of user and project connections
