Arduino MKR Zero Developer Board
Arduino MKR Zero Developer Board overview
The Arduino MKR Zero brings the capability of a Zero board in a smaller format established by the MKR form factor. The Arduino MKR Zero board acts as a very useful tool for the implementation of 32-bit application development. The board is powered by Atmel’s SAMD21 MCU, which features a 32-bit ARM Cortex® M0+ core. The board contains everything needed to support the microcontroller; requiring the user to simply connect it to a computer with a micro-USB cable or power it with a LiPo battery. The battery voltage can also be monitored since a connection between the battery and the analog converter of the board exists.
The Arduino MKR Zero is a development board directed towards the needs of musicians and audio engineers The board is equipped with an onboard SD card holder and dedicated SPI interfaces (SPI1), allowing the user to be able to play music files without extra hardware.
