Teensy 3.6 is a high-performance ARM Cortex-M4 board running at 180 MHz, offering 1MB flash, 256KB RAM, and native USB. It includes many analog and digital I/O, touch sensing, and high-speed UART/SPI, making it ideal for robotic arms and motion controllers requiring responsiveness.
The Teensy 3.6 is a powerful, small-form-factor development board designed by PJRC, tailored for hobbyists, students, and engineers who require high-performance microcontroller capabilities in compact setups. It features a 32‑bit ARM Cortex‑M4 processor with a floating-point unit, clocked at 180 MHz, and offers generous onboard memory—1 MB Flash, 256 KB RAM, and 4 KB EEPROM—making it a substantial upgrade over previous Teensy models like the 3.2 and 3.5. Its standout hardware includes a USB High-Speed (480 Mbit/s) port for rapid communication and programming, dual CAN bus ports, 32 DMA channels, and 22 PWM outputs, lending itself well to advanced embedded and real-time applications. Connectivity and I/O are robust: you’ll find 62 I/O pins (42 of which align with solderless breadboards), 25 analog inputs (with 13-bit resolution), 2 analog outputs (DACs), 4 I²C ports, 3 SPI ports (one with FIFO), 6 serial ports, native microSD support via SDIO, an Ethernet MAC (requires external PHY), and an I²S audio port. Not just a general-purpose tool—it's also designed for complex tasks. It includes cryptographic acceleration, a random number generator, a CRC engine, and a real-time clock (RTC)—all making it ideal for applications where security, timing, and efficient data handling are essential. The Teensy 3.6 is a compact and high-performance ARM Cortex‑M4 development board engineered for demanding embedded projects. Running at 180 MHz with a floating-point unit, it offers 1 MB of flash memory, 256 KB RAM, and 4 KB EEPROM. Featuring USB High-Speed programming, CAN interface, extensive I/O support—analog, digital, PWM, I²C, SPI, serial, and microSD—and powerful on-chip utilities like DMA, cryptographic acceleration, and real-time clock, it empowers creators to build advanced applications in robotics, IoT, audio processing, and more, all within a breadboard-friendly design.
