Olimex PIC32-PINGUINO-MX220 32-Bit Pinguino Development Board

This development board from Olimex uses the familiar Arduino UNO form factor but offers vast hardware improvements over the original R3, notably the 32-bit PIC32 chip! This board enables code development of applications running on the PIC32MX220F032D microcontroller, manufactured by Microchip technology, using the Pinguino IDE. This board uses a Mini-USB connector, so be sure to pick up a matching Mini-USB USB cable! Hardware Differences Here is a table highlighting the hardware differences between this board and the classic Arduino UNO R3 (the software approach is also different as the Piguino IDE is used with this PIC32 board):
