Product Description

LGT8F328P LQFP32 MiniEVB Alternative Pro Mini

High-Performance Arduino Pro Mini Replacement Board

The LGT8F328P LQFP32 MiniEVB is a powerful and compact development board designed as a cost-effective alternative to the traditional Arduino Pro Mini. Based on the LGT8F328P microcontroller (LQFP32 package), this board offers significant performance improvements while maintaining compatibility with the Arduino IDE[citation:2][citation:5][citation:6].

Operates at 32MHz clock speed - twice as fast as standard Pro Mini
Features 12bit ADC vs standard 10bit for higher resolution
Supports 5V operating voltage with 5-9V input range
