Hardware

The hardware of the Arduino has evolved slowly since its introduction in 2005. Because Arduino as a concept is very much a combination of hardware and software, it’s important to have a good understanding of what’s involved in both areas, as well as the areas where they overlap. Let’s undertake a broad outline of the hardware part of the Arduino in this chapter, going into some detail in a few areas, as well as its history and how you’ll play a part in its future.
