## Description

desertcart.com: KEYESTUDIO Leonardo R3 Microcontroller Development Board with USB Cable Kit for Arduino Project : Electronics

Review: I did extensive testing and found no defects - Overview: I am pleased w/ this purchase. I use it as an "Uno substitute": its useful for prototyping, but I'm unlikely to use as the final MCU in a project. It is 50x70mm, matching the board size of a Genuino Uno. Details and testing: Packaging: Arrived in a Keyestudio display (cardboard) box, inside a 2nd crush-resistant cardboard box. The package includes a serial cable. Appearance: The board has "spiffy" yellow labelling and yellow headers on a black background. Components & electrical testing: The microprocessor, in the 44-pin TQFP form factor, is labelled "Atmel mega32U4, -MU, 2335 PU". On-board voltage regulator is the AMS1117-5v. With a 9-v battery plugged to the barrel jack (or the Vin pin), Vout is 5.04v. Functional testing: (a) Program upload: With a 9-v battery attached, the on-board LED flashed at 1 Hz, implying the "blink sketch" is running and the Bootloader is present. No need to install other software (e.g., QMK firmware). I opened the Arduino IDE, plugged in the serial cable, then checked Tools|Port. The IDE recognized the board as "COM# (Arduino Leonardo)". (b) UART-USB-Serial interface: Unlike some 32U4 boards, this MCU has on-board UART IC, making serial programming easy. I selected Tools|Board|Arduino AVR boards and chose "Leonardo". I created & uploaded a "Hello World" sketch and opened a serial window => success. (c) Analog pins/ADC: The ADC and all analog pins were functional. I created ~2v at the mid-pt of a voltage divider and measured the value returned from the A0 pin. The value was in the expected range (422, corresponding to 2.2v, w/ similar values fr pins A1-A5, as well as, a Genuino Uno). d) PWM pins: I successfully made LEDs attached to PWM pins (3, 5, 6, 9, 10, & 11) fade. e) Memory: successful access to flash [32kb (28.7kb+bootloader)], SRAM (2.5kb) and EEPROM (1kb), confirming the expected values.
Review: All pins working on arrival as well as USB HID functionality, great board. - The description says this Leo has 20 digital input/output pins, but you can actually squeeze that number up to 22 by using SDA and SCL. Perfect for my needs! I wrote up a quick sketch when I got the board and all 22 of those pins fed a nice healthy HIGH signal when told to. Keyboard emulation also worked flawlessly. I've had problems in the past with micro USB connectors on Arduinos, but this one is very sturdy and plugs in and out easily and securely with the provided cable. Also, the silk screening on the board is very nice. I really like the color of this specific Leonardo. Great product!

## Features

- Please NOTE: Open the Arduino IDE, you’ll need to click the “Tools”, then select the Board that corresponds to your Arduino. If you don't choose the correct development board type, it will cause the compilation to fail to transfer. So this is a place that needs special attention.
- The keyestudio Leonardo is a microcontroller board based on the ATmega32u4，It has 20 digital input/output pins (of which 7 can be used as PWM outputs), 12 analog inputs, a 16 MHz crystal oscillator, a micro USB connection, a power jack, an ICSP header, and a reset button.
- The Leonardo differs from other boards using separate USB-Serial chip in that the ATmega32u4 has built-in USB communication, eliminating the need for a secondary processor.
- This allows the Leonardo to appear to a connected computer as a mouse and keyboard.
- Has fcc and ce certification that they are made from environmentally friendly production technology and materials, made function,voltage, current testing before packaging

## Questions & Answers

**Q: is this leonardo HID compatible?**
A: Yes

**Q: Is this the same as a normal leonardo,  or does the "development" in the name imply some other functionality?**
A: I was looking for an UNO R3 (2016!) for a Grove sensor project.  It is a regular, normal UNO board.  I used  the Arduino IDE to program Seeed Studio's Grove watering, temperature sensors. I also purchased a similar board "MakerBest Hight Quality Compatible Arduino UNO R3 ATmega328P Development Kits " for Elenco's Snapno kit.  Both work fine and both for developing projects using UNO boards.  Hope this helps

**Q: will this device run micropython?**
A: sorry ,it can't

**Q: Is there a program to be installed?**
A: It's Ardunio-based, so you'll have to write the code and load it in. There are a lot of tutorials out on the web and pre-existing code that make it easy (or easier than starting from scratch).

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great little unit
*by S***S on December 27, 2024*

Works perfect, been learning stuff on Uno and wanted try making a sim racing button box so needed something with HID capability. Using this with Simhub made that very easy. This board is perfect for developing HID devices.
