The RedBoard Plus suits learners and builders who want an Arduino Uno-style workflow with a USB-C connection and convenient access to Qwiic devices. Its ATmega328P controller runs with the Uno bootloader, while a physical switch selects 3.3 V or 5 V I/O operation. The board also exposes additional analog connections and retains an R3-compatible shield layout. Use it as a controller for a planned circuit or robotics project, pairing the board with sensors, a suitable motor driver and a power supply selected for that build.
