However, these two areas are where the Arduino Mega shines. It's built with 256 KB of flash memory and over 50 pins, perfect for managing larger and more demanding projects with multiple components.

Meanwhile, the Arduino Mega is getting the same USB chip along with an ATMega2560 processor with twice the memory. Right now only 128K is available, but that's a software limitation and they're ...

The Arduino Team presented ... At this point, the Mega 2560 has some kind of issue with gcc on certain platforms and unable to use the full memory available until there is an update to the IDE.

For those of you who are looking to put some power behind your Arduino shields ... MIPS processor core running at 80Mhz, 512KB flash memory and packs 128KB of SRAM data memory.
