Teensy 4.0

Overview

The Teensy 4.0 is a high-performance development board featuring the NXP i.MXRT1062 ARM Cortex-M7 processor running at 600MHz. It offers the processing power of a modern microcontroller in a compact 1.4 by 0.7 inch form factor that is compatible with standard breadboards.

Why Choose This Part

The board provides an exceptional price-to-performance ratio with 1024K RAM and 2048K Flash memory. It features specialized hardware support for power management, allowing the CPU to be dynamically overclocked or underclocked to suit the application thermal and power constraints.

Applications

Getting Started

Develop using the Arduino IDE by installing the Teensyduino add-on which provides a comprehensive suite of optimized libraries. Connect via a standard micro-USB cable to program the board and use the onboard LED on pin 13 for initial hardware verification.

Also Consider

Teensy 4.1 SparkFun Electronics - Choose this for additional I/O pins, an Ethernet PHY, and a built-in microSD card socket.

Arduino Nano 33 IoT Arduino - Consider this if your project specifically requires integrated WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity in a similar small footprint.

Seeed Studio XIAO ESP32S3 Seeed Technology - A more cost-effective alternative for simple IoT tasks that require a dual-core processor and integrated wireless.
