There is no Serial-to-USB chip onboard.You cannot plug shields directly into the Pro Trinket.The onboard 5V regulator can provide 150mA output, not 800mA out.Pins #2 and #7 are not available (they are exclusively for USB).Here's some things you may have to consider when adapting Arduino sketches: So you'll be happy to hear that not only is Pro Trinket programmable using the Arduino IDE as you already set up, but 99% of Arduino projects will work out of the box!įor tons more details, check out the Introducing Pro Trinket tutorial The Pro Trinket 5V uses the Atmega328P chip, which is the same core chip in the Arduino UNO/Duemilanove/Mini/etc. So it's great once you've finished up a prototype on an official Arduino UNO and want to make the project smaller. The Pro Trinket PCB measures only 1.5' x 0.7' x 0.2' (without headers) but packs much of the same capability as an Arduino UNO.

We also added Optiboot support, so you can either program your Pro Trinket over USB or with a FTDI cable just like the Pro Mini and friends. Like the Trinket, it has onboard USB bootloading support - we opted for a MicroUSB jack this time.

That's why we designed Pro Trinket, with 18 GPIO, 2 extra analog inputs, 28K of flash, and 2K of RAM. Trinket's a year old now, and while its been great to see tons of tiny projects, sometimes you just need more pins, more FLASH, and more RAM. It's like an Arduino Pro Mini with more pins and USB tossed in, so delicious.

Trinket's got a big sister in town - the Pro Trinket 5V! Pro Trinket combines everything you love about Trinket with the familiarity of the common core Arduino chip, the ATmega328.
