Members of the Mechatronics Club at ENSA Kenitra and I have did some case studies on every Arduino board from Classic Family. This article is our conclusion on Arduino Classic Boards, covering specifications, use cases, and difficulty levels from Beginners to Professionals . I have discussed on Nano boards , MKR boards and Mega boards as well.
