Features of the Nano Flip
The following are highlights of the Nano Flip. For full details please see the User Manual.
- USB-C Port.
- Power (PWR) LED. Can be disconnected by cutting the jumper pad on the back.
- Reset (RST) Button.
- Pinout labels (on the back).
- Programmable LED Pin 13.
- Lead-free surface finish RoHS.
- 5V Power supply jumper disconnect (on the back).
- Canadian designed!
Breadboard friendly
The Nano Flip is breadboard-friendly, making it ideal for rapid prototyping on standard breadboards.

Ready-to-use out-of-the-box ... Fully assembled, bootloader burned, and "GetStarted" sketch uploaded!
The Nano Flip comes ready-to-use out-of-the-box. What does that mean exactly?
- Fully assembled (Image with the circled "1" above): The Nano Flip is fully assembled with male headers soldered in place. With the modern USB-C Port onboard, getting started is as easy as plugging it in.
- Experiment ready: The Nano Flip has bootloader burned, and our custom "GetStarted" sketch has been uploaded.
Get tinkering right away with the five tests uploaded in our custom "GetStarted" sketch (NOTE below). These tests include:
- Test 1: Onboard LED (Pin 13) Blink Unique Pattern. Observe a blinking pattern on the onboard LED.
- Test 2: Onboard LED (Pin 13) Blink Reset Pattern. Observe a different short blinking pattern upon pressing RST.
- Test 3: I2C Scanner (Image with the circled "3" above). Connect a peripheral via I2C and automatically scan its address. View the results in Serial Monitor on baud 9600 (See NOTE below).
- Test 4: Pin 9 Fade (Image with the circled "2" above). Connect an external LED and a resistor from Pin 9 to ground and observe the classic "Fade" example.
- Test 5: Analog A0 Read. Connect a wire to the A0 Pin and observe the readout on the Serial Monitor on baud 9600 (See NOTE below).
These tests are explained in detail in the User Manual of the Nano Flip.
NOTE: Please ensure you have the CH340 driver installed (Only required once - Likely you already have it). Details on how to install this common driver can be found in the User Manual for the Nano Flip.

--- The Good ---Standard arduino, USB-C connector chip sidePre-soldered with good beads--- The Bad ---Price -- far more expensive than comparable boards--- Bottom Line ---If you want a few ADC and GPIO pins and easy support in the Arduino IDE then yet, this will suit your needs. If you want that at market price, you'll want to look elsewhere. I see absolutely nothing noteworthy about these arduinos that justify the high price.

I love this little Arduino-compatible board!It's crazy to think of how far technology has come in our lifetime. I'm tech-literate but it still amazes me how inexpensive it is to get started using some very complex technology using free software and a tiny developer/experimenter board like this. It was literally 10 minutes from tearing open the package to playing with a downloaded code sample.The build quality of this little board is great - it seems well made and works flawlessly. There are bright red LEDs that tells you your serial USB C connection is working and the device is getting power from your PC or USB hub. So the recipe to get rolling with this is:1) Get this board!2) Get a USB C to USB A/C cable (assuming you'll be connecting to PC, and it's not included with this board)3) Download the current version of Arduino IDE software (totally free - Google it!)4) Download a CH340G serial driver (the link provided by the manufacturer didn't work, but just Google "CH340G" serial driver and you'll find it - CH341SER.zip worked for me)Install the driver and IDE (integrated development environment aka programming sandbox) and you'll be off to the races. Select "Arduino Nano" from the pulldown menu and ensure you are using the correct serial port. Then go explore code snippets and do some reading. Google "Arduino Nano projects" and the world is your oyster. This board can be plugged into SO MANY other things and used as the core of your learning universe.Highly recommended - have fun with this thing!

These worked well for me, basically an Arduino Nano clone.But why are these so expensive?! At the time of me writing this, these are priced $30 for the pair.I appreciate USB-C interface, but I don't think it justifies such a steep price tag. I hope the seller reduces the price.

Always love to see Canadian tech and was really happy to see this well-designed board come up. This is a fantastic ATMega 328 Arduino board for learning and projects. I love preloaded demo to give a quick function check and some basic idea of operation without any coding. Its satisfying to plug in get setup and see the board produce results over serial as a new user. I love the form factor from a learning perspective lots of pins on a standard breadboard to connect up to devices or components to help get through a learning module. Although there is great silk screening on the bottom it do love to see the pins numbered on the topside too to help with connecting up. There are enough landmarks on the board to help identify from the pin out diagram.Documentation from PTSolns is very good, the product listing and their website and github pages are loaded with quality documentation to help you get up and running. Each of the standard devices are explained in detail. There is also a great video linked to get you started exploring the preloaded code.But, being a regular ole Arduino you got an incredible number of resources out there to jump into your project or educational goals. While the documentation stops short of programming and flashing, there are so many tutorials out there you will have zero issues. I do recommend playing with the linked demo sketch to see what is going on and try flashing it for a risk free run. Make sure you select the "old bootloader" on the processor menu and you are all set.Very happy with the boards and would recommend them to anyone looking to jump into Arduino programming, from first steps to final projects you are all set with these boards.

These microcontrollers from PTSolns includes 2 * ATmega328P AKA Nano Flip. I do like that PTSolns has soldered headers which is convenient. Do note that they did not include any USB cables, but USB C cords are very common these days. These microcontrollers can be programmed using Arduino IDE so you won't need to learn another programming language. These microcontrollers are not exactly feature rich so you will not be able to use it for the more complex projects. These microcontrollers are breadboard friendly for easy prototyping. The current price of $30 CAD means each microcontroller is $15.
