It has 14 digital input/output pins (of which 6 can be used as PWM outputs)-6 analog inputs, a 16 MHz crystal oscillator-USB connection, a power jack, an ICSP header-Reset button. It contains everything needed to support the microcontroller; simply connect it to a computer with a USB cable or power it with a AC-to-DC adapter or battery to get started. The Uno differs from all preceding boards in that it does not use the FTDI USB-to-serial driver chip. Instead, it features the Atmega8U2 programmed as a USB-to-serial converter. "Uno" means one in Italian and is named to mark the upcoming release of Arduino 1.0.
