![Arduino Nano [A000005]](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/61yjNeMjdkL._AC_UL160_SR160,160_.jpg)
I like when I can get my hands on small inexpensive microcontrollers like this for simple projects. These are basic no frills microcontrollers that are easy to use and easy to program. I use small microcontrollers like this to run LED projects or other "set and forget" projects.All of the standard pins you would expect to find on a ATmega328P are broken out on this board. There is an additional pin to supply an external voltage called Vin. This is nice as it allows the board to be powered by a source other than a USB cable with a supply up to 12V.These are extremely easy to use in the Arduino IDE. To set the boards up in the IDE follow the steps below.1. Select the Arduino Nano from the Tools/Board menu2. Select ATmega328P (Old Bootloader) in the Tools/Processor menu3. Select your port.I have tested this on both my MacBook Pro and my Windows 10 devices. No issues on either platform.This version has an ICSP (In Circuit System Programming) header which can be used for direct programming. This header can be used to burn a new bootloader from the IDE or upload your sketch using the "Upload With Programmer" menu option. In either case, you need a special device called a programmer to use the ICSP header.I was able to test the ICSP port and ensure it works. Using my tiny programmer (see image), I connected a 6-pin cable to the header and burned the new bootloader. I am now able to use the ATmega328P processor instead of the "Old Bootloader" option. This newer bootloader loads at a much faster speed than the old one.Note the description states that the Nano chip is a CH340. What this means is that the USB port chip used is a CH340. When you plug it into your computer, it will show this name for the com port (see 3rd image).Whether you are just messing around for the first time with the Arduino platform or looking to embed a microcontroller in your project this is a great option and I recommend it.

These are great compact Arduinos. I love that in this day and age you can get so much functionality out of something the size of your thumb.
They have all the functionality you've come to expect out of a Nano. They don't have quite as much as an uno or mega, but for trying to fit a full package in a small case, these are the best way to go.
One of mine did have some pins that were slightly bent in, but it wasn't a big deal.
Overall great Nano's.
Highly recommended.

Besoin d'installer le pilote CH340 et hop on programme avec arduino IDE.
Beaucoup plus petit que je croyais (tant mieux)
Ne vient pas avec le câble USB donc assurez-vous d'avoir un mini-USB sous la main
