Typical values. Sleep current is approximate; whole-board numbers are higher than the bare chip's datasheet figure.

Pros

  • Breadboard-friendly Uno that costs $5 as a clone
  • Same huge Arduino library support
  • 8 analog inputs (two are analog-only)

Cons

  • Tiny memory and slow CPU
  • Older mini-USB connector on most boards
  • Cheap clones need a CH340 driver

Best use cases

  • 01Compact robots and sensor boxes
  • 02Permanent projects that need 5 V
  • 03Learning on a budget
  • 04Retrofitting older Arduino sketches
