1 The Board
1.1 Application Examples
‘The UNO Ré Minima isthe first UNO series 32-bit development board, being previously based on 8-bit AVR.
‘microcontrollers. There are thousands of guides, tutorials and books writen about the UNO board, where UNO R&
Minima continues its legacy.
‘The board features the slandard 14 digital /O ports, 6 analog channels, dedicated pins for PC, SPI and UART
connections. Compared to is predecessors the board has a much larger memory 8 times more flash memory (256 KB)
‘and 16 times more SRAM (32 KB).
Entry level projects: If this i your fst project within coding and electronics, the UNO Ra Minima is @ good fit Its easy
to get stared with and has a lat of online documentation (both offical + 3rd party)
Easy power management: the UNO Ré has barrel jack connector and supports input voltages from 6-24 V. This
‘connector is widely popular and removes the need for addtional circuitry required to stepping down the voltage.
Cross compatibility: the UNO form factor automatically makes it compatible with hundreds of existing third-party shields.
and other accessories.

‘The UNO Ré Minima has @ DAC with up to 12-bit resolution attached Io the AO anslog pin. A DAC is used to convert &
digital signal to an analog signal
8 Power Options
PPower can either be supplie via the VIN pn, the bate! jack, or va USB-Cf connector. I power is supplied vis VIN the
ISL854102FRZ buck converter steps the voltage downto 5 V.
‘The VUSB, barrel jack connector and VIN pins are connected to the ISL854102FRZ buck converter, with Schottky diodes
In place for reverse polarity & overvoltage protection respectively
Power via USB supplies about ~4,7 V (due to Schottky drop) to the RAEM1 microcontroller

8.2 Pin Voltage
‘The UNO Ré Minima operates on 5 V, as does all pins on this board except forthe 3.3V pin. This pin draws power from
the voc _uS8 pin on the R7FAAMtABSCFN#AAO, and isnot connected tothe buck converter
8.3 Pin Current
‘The GPIOs on the R7FA4M1ABSCFM#AAO micracontolar can handle up to 8 mA. Never connect devices that draw
higher curent direct to a GPIO,
In case you need to power external devices thal require more power, e.g. serve motors, use an external power supply.

11 Board Operation
11.1 Getting started - IDE
IF you want to program your UNO Ré Minima while offine you need to install the Arduino® Desktop IDE [1]. To connect
the UNO Ré Minima to your computer, you will need a Type-C® USB cable, which can also provide power tothe board,
‘as indicated by the LED (DL).
11.2 Getting started - Arduino Web Editor
‘Al Arduino boards, including tis one, work out-of-the-box on the Arduino® Web Editor [2], by just installing a simple
plugin
‘The Arduino Web Editors hosted online, therefore it wil aways be up-to-date with the lates features and support for
boards. Follow [3] to stat coding on the browser and upload sketches onto your board
11.3 Getting Started - Arduino IoT Cloud
{All Arduino loT enabled products are supported on Arduino loT Cloud which allows you to log, graph and analyze sensor
data, tigger events, and automate your home or business,
11.4 Online Resources
"Now that you have gone through the basics of what you can do withthe board you can explore the endless possiblities it
provides by checking exciting projects on Arduino Project Hub [4], the Arduino Library Reference [5], andthe ontine store
[6]; where you will be able to complement your board with sensors, actuators and more,
11.5 Board Recovery
|All Arduino boards have a builtin bootloader which allows flashing the board via USB, In case a sketch locks up the
processor and the board is nt reachable anymare via USB, itis possible o anter bootloader mode by double-apping the
