Our current and clear recommendation is, to use a SAM21G18 based board. As our Software compiles against the official Arduino.cc platforms, your board should run a Bootloader that is supported by those official Arduino.cc platforms.

If you buy cheap Arduino boards from ebay or aliexpress, you should check that you're running the correct bootloader. Otherwise you may run into conflicts with the arduino platform for the boards, because our [[KONNEKTING Device Library]] has been developed and tested against the following platforms:

* Arduino.cc SAMD Boards: https://github.com/arduino/ArduinoCore-samd

Our current and clear recommendation is, to use a SAM21G18 based board, as the chip provides 32k RAM and 256k Memory and 48Mhz clock speed. So plenty of space and performance at lowest possible current consumption.

Clarification

There are two major Arduino "sources" available:

  • www.arduino.cc
  • www.arduino.org

The difference between both is:

  • They use different bootloaders
  • They use different platform-implementations

We focus on devices found on www.arduino.cc and support following chips for following devices:

  • Atmel ATmega 328P
    • Arduino Nano
    • Arduino ProMini
  • Atmel ATmega 32U4
    • Arduino Leonardo
    • Arduino Micro
  • Atmel/Microchip SAMD21G18
    • Arduino Zero

If you buy cheap Arduino boards from ebay or aliexpress, you should check that you're running the correct bootloader. Otherwise you may run into conflicts with the arduino platform for the boards, because our KONNEKTING Device Library has been developed and tested against the following platforms:
