Arduino Uno Rev3 open-source MCU has digital and analog I/Os. Arduino’s microcontroller (MCU) board based on the Microchip ATmega328P microcontroller is open-source.
The board has 14 digital inputs/output pins, 6 analog inputs, a 16 MHz quartz crystal, a USB connection, a power jack, an ICSP header, and a reset button. The Uno Rev3 has everything required to support the microcontroller users can just simply connect it to a computer with a USB cable or power it with an AC-to-DC adapter or battery to get started.
The long and short of it is there is very little that could go wrong when tinkering with an Arduino Uno. The worst that can happen is the user needs to replace the chip, for a few bucks.
The term Uno was chosen because it marks the release of the Arduino Software (IDE) 1.0. The Uno board and the software version 1.0 were reference versions of Arduino, which now evolved to newer releases. The Uno board is the first in a series of USB Arduino boards, and the reference model for the Arduino platform, for an extensive list of current, past or outdated boards, see the Arduino index of boards.
