00:00Paragraph 1. Hook
00:02So you're stuck in the 8 Mega 328P vs. STM32F030 debate, classic question, and honestly, it depends on what you're
00:10building.
00:11But here's the thing, the 8 Mega 328P is still the friendliest chip on the planet, and I went digging
00:16for the 5 best Nano and Uno deals out there.
00:19These are the ones people actually keep buying.
00:23Paragraph 2. Product 1 Mini USB Nano Version 3.0, $4.47
00:29First up, the Mini USB Nano Version 3.0 with the 8 Mega 328P, 5V, 16MHz, and the CH340 driver,
00:38and by the way, the CH340 is the part that saves you money versus a genuine FTDI chip.
00:43It's sitting at $4.47 with 4,346 sold and a 4.9 rating.
00:50That's about as proven as a board gets.
00:53If you want one classic Nano on your desk, this is a Mini USB, plug it in, done.
00:59Paragraph 3. Product 2 Mini-Type-C-Micro USB Nano 3.0, $3.38
01:07Number 2 is the cheapest of the bunch, and it's sneaky good.
01:11Same bootloader-compatible Nano controller, same 8 Mega 328P at 16MHz, same CH340 USB driver, but you get to pick
01:19your connector, Mini, Micro, or Type-C.
01:22Price is $3.38, $4,337 sold, 4.8 stars.
01:27If you're tired of hunting for the right cable every single time, pay less and grab the Type-C version.
01:34Easy Recommendation
01:35Note, no STM32F030 board in product list, so ScriptFrame's comparison is intro hook only, then reviews the 5.8 Mega
01:43328P boards.
01:46Add STM32F030 product when one available.
