EnviroDIY Mayfly Data Logger

About

The EnviroDIY™ Mayfly Data Logger is an Arduino-framework microcontroller board designed specifically for environmental Internet of Things (IoT) applications with the goal to facilitate professional-quality, do-it-yourself (DIY) environmental science and monitoring.

The Mayfly Data Logger features the ATmega1284p processor, which has 4 times more flash memory for sketches, 8 times more RAM, and almost twice as many input pins as the ATmega328p chip found in the most common Arduino boards. The Mayfly Data Logger also has an integrated solar lipo battery charger, a precise real time clock (RTC), a microSD memory card socket, an XBee radio module socket, and other hardware features.

Features

  • Fully programmable microprocessor board, compatible with the Arduino IDE software
  • Atmega 1284p processor, 128K flash memory and 16K RAM
  • 24 digital I/O pins, and 8 analog pins, plus a 4-channel 16-bit analog-to-digital converter
  • Realtime Clock chip, microSD card slot, Bee RF module socket, and solar battery charging capability
