Datasheet
The Teensy is a breadboard-friendly development board with loads of features in a tiny
package. The Teensy LC (Low Cost) is a 32 bit microcontroller board that provides you
with an uncomplicated option for getting started with the Teensy line of products without
breaking the bank!
The Teensy LC comes pre-flashed with a bootloader so you can program it using the on-
board USB connection: No external programmer needed! You can program for the
Teensy in your favourite program editor using C or you can install the Teensyduino add-
on for the Arduino IDE and write Arduino sketches for Teensy!
The processor on the Teensy also has access to the USB and can emulate any kind of
USB device you need it to be, making it great for USB-MIDI and other HID projects. The
32 bit processor brings a few other features to the table as well, such as multiple
channels of Direct Memory Access and an I2S digital audio interface! There are also 2
separate interval timers! Also, the Teensy LC can provide system voltage of 3.3V or 5V
to other devices at up to 5-20mA.
All of this functionality is jammed into a 1.4 x 0.7 inch board with all headers on a 0.1"
grid so you can slap it on a breadboard and get to work! So, what sets the Teensy LC
apart from the Teensy 3.1? First off, this version has been streamlined to be as cost
effective as possible. Obviously, the LC doesn't share a lot of power that the 3.1
possesses but by no means does it make the LC a 'weak' board! The Teensy LC is
equipped with 8kB RAM, 62kB of flash memory, and 27 Digital I/O pins with 13 high res
Analog inputs.
