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!Īdafruit publishes a wide range of writing and video content, including interviews and reporting on the maker market and the wider technology world.

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. Pro Trinket combines everything you love about Trinket with the familiarity of the common core Arduino chip, the ATmega328. The Pro Trinket is a “breakout hit” as they say in the breakout business.

The Adafruit Pro Trinket – 5V & 3V sold out instantly again… we’re increasing the amount we make each time and making more right now, thanks for hanging in there.
