This board also features 128 MB of RAM, 8MB of Flash and the usual compliment of Arduino pins in a Leonardo-compatible layout. Also on the SoC is a PCIE bus, Ethernet, a USB 2.0 host, and an SD card.

For the most part, the build is what you would expect: a 16×8 LED Matrix display driven by a TLC5920 LED driver, with an Arduino that uses a DS1307 RTC (real-time clock) with a coin cell ...

There are benchmarks here. The latest addition to the Arduino open source prototyping platform, the Leonardo microcontroller board is available from Rapid Electronics, writes Richard Wilson. Based on ...
