It is the controller IC used at the heart of the Arduino Mega and many other advanced controller boards, making it a strong choice for complex embedded projects that need plenty of I/O and program space.With instructions executed in a single clock cycle, the ATmega2560 achieves throughputs approaching 1 MIPS per MHz, helping balance processing speed and power consumption. Its large memory resources suit applications with bigger codebases, complex logic or multiple software libraries.Connectivity is a major strength, with 86 general-purpose I/O lines and a broad peripheral set for sensors, actuators, displays, buttons and other components. This ATMEGA2560-16AUR variant is intended for 5V logic systems, comes in a surface-mount package and is rated for industrial temperature operation.Features:High-performance, low-power 8-bit microcontroller based on the Microchip AVR enhanced RISC architecture.Powerful IC at the heart of the Arduino Mega and many other advanced controller boards.Ideal choice for complex projects that demand a massive amount of I/O and a large program memory.Executes powerful instructions in a single clock cycle.Achieves throughputs approaching 1 MIPS per MHz.Equipped with 256KB of Flash for program code.Equipped with 8KB of SRAM for runtime variables.Equipped with 4KB of EEPROM for non-volatile data storage.Provides 86 general-purpose I/O lines.16-channel, 10-bit A/D converter for reading numerous analogue sensors.Communication interfaces include I2C, SPI and UART/USART.EBI/EMI (External Bus Interface) for applications requiring external memory.On-chip debug and programming support.Brown-out Detect/Reset support.Power-on Reset (POR) support.Multiple PWM channels.Watchdog Timer (WDT).Operates at 16 MHz.Supply voltage of 4.5V to 5.5V.Suitable for 5V logic systems.Surface-mount package.Rated for the industrial temperature range (-40°C to 85°C).Specifications:Core Processor: AVRCore Size: 8-BitSpeed: 16MHzConnectivity: EBI/EMI, I2C, SPI, UART/USARTPeripherals: Brown-out Detect/Reset, POR, PWM, WDTNumber of I/O: 86Program Memory Size: 256KB (128K x 16)Program Memory Type: FLASHEEPROM Size: 4K x 8RAM Size: 8K x 8Voltage - Supply (Vcc/Vdd): 4.5V ~ 5.5VData Converters: A/D 16x10bOscillator Type: InternalOperating Temperature: -40°C ~ 85°C (TA)Mounting Type: Surface MountMfg #: ATMEGA2560-16AURA useful bare microcontroller IC for designers building or repairing advanced AVR-based boards that need extensive I/O, multiple serial interfaces and large on-chip memory. **Product Type:** Microcontroller IC ## Images - [Image 1](https://littlebirdelectronics.com.au/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/BAh7BkkiC19yYWlscwY6BkVUewdJIglkYXRhBjsAVGkDlMECSSIIcHVyBjsAVEkiDGJsb2JfaWQGOwBG--1d7fb44775dcb23e3911692bedb5a3dea928a503/30157-ATMEGA2560-16AUR-Feature.jpg) - [Image 2](https://littlebirdelectronics.com.au/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/BAh7BkkiC19yYWlscwY6BkVUewdJIglkYXRhBjsAVGkDlcECSSIIcHVyBjsAVEkiDGJsb2JfaWQGOwBG--c9b58f90ecd20c8f794e0eb8e6b0d07764f0bd0a/30157-ATMEGA2560-16AUR-Front.jpg) - [Image 3](https://littlebirdelectronics.com.au/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/BAh7BkkiC19yYWlscwY6BkVUewdJIglkYXRhBjsAVGkDlsECSSIIcHVyBjsAVEkiDGJsb2JfaWQGOwBG--6077b69d6845b9d7267d3f95a9b1ba7ba8303dbc/30157-ATMEGA2560-16AUR-Back.jpg) - [Image 4](https://littlebirdelectronics.com.au/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/BAh7BkkiC19yYWlscwY6BkVUewdJIglkYXRhBjsAVGkDl8ECSSIIcHVyBjsAVEkiDGJsb2JfaWQGOwBG--c7d76fdea6e8296c6ca585d8088c461fac5486dd/30157-ATMEGA2560-16AUR-Scale.jpg) --- ## Finding & Searching Products If a part listed here isn't quite what you need, you can search Little Bird Electronics' full catalogue: - **Search by keyword:** `GET https://littlebirdelectronics.com.au/products.md?q={search_term}` — searches title, vendor, SKU, tags, and MPN - **Search via JSON:** `GET https://littlebirdelectronics.com.au/products.json?q={search_term}` — structured JSON results - **Browse by collection:** `GET https://littlebirdelectronics.com.au/collections/{handle}.json` — products in a specific collection - **Filter in-stock only:** `GET https://littlebirdelectronics.com.au/products.md?q={term}&in_stock=1` - **Individual product detail:** `GET https://littlebirdelectronics.com.au/products/{handle}.md` — full specs, pricing, stock levels, variants Search supports multi-word queries (AND logic).
