LilyPad Arduino 328 Main Board–NA

Description

About this item:

The LilyPad Arduino 328 Main Board is a specialized Arduino-compatible development board created for wearable electronics and e-textile applications. Developed by Leah Buechley in collaboration with SparkFun Electronics, this board integrates seamlessly into clothing and fabric-based projects.

Its circular form factor (≈50mm diameter) and large sewable pads allow easy connection using conductive thread, eliminating the need for traditional wires. Powered by the ATmega328P microcontroller, it supports a wide range of interactive designs including light-up garments, motion-reactive accessories, and artistic wearable projects.
