Communication
The Arduino Fio has a number of facilities for communicating with a computer, another Arduino, or other
microcontrollers. The ATmega328P provides UART TTL serial communication, which is available on digital
pins 0 (RX) and 1 (TX). The Arduino software includes a serial monitor which allows simple textual data to
be sent to and from the Arduino Fio board via an external serial connection. We recommend using an FTDI
Basic or FTDI cable. The on board mini-USB connector is only used for charging and does not allow for
serial communication.
A
SoftwareSerial library
allows for serial communication on any of the Fio's digital pins.
The ATmega328P also supports I2C (TWI) and SPI communication. The Arduino software includes a Wire
library to simplify use of the I2C bus; see the
reference
for details. To use the SPI communication, please
see the ATmega328P datasheet.
Physical Characteristics
The dimensions of the Fio PCB are approximately 1.1" x 2.6".
