Fc9-conn-icon.png Memory
Fc9-type-21-icon.png ROM Size
Number of bytes available for ROM storage. ROM - Read Only Memory - Contains the Flowcode program as well as other constants such as strings 
Fc9-type-21-icon.png RAM Size
Number of bytes available for RAM storage. RAM - Random Access Memory - Contains the Flowcode variables as well as the operational stack 
Fc9-type-21-icon.png EEPROM Size
Number of bytes available for EEPROM storage. EEPROM - Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory - Contains user data that can persist when the power is removed 
Fc9-conn-icon.png Analogue
Fc9-type-21-icon.png ADC Max Bits
Maximum number of bits used for an ADC conversion which dictates the maximum reading the ADC can generate. 8 bits = 0 - 255 10 bits = 0 - 1023 12 bits = 0 - 4095 
Fc9-type-21-icon.png ADC Pins
Number of pins capable of reading an analogue input. 
Fc9-type-21-icon.png DAC Max Bits
Maximum number of bits used for an DAC conversion which dictates the output resolution of the DAC. 5 bits = 0 - 31 8 bits = 0 - 255 10 bits = 0 - 1023 
Fc9-type-21-icon.png DAC Pins
Number of pins capable of outputting an analogue voltage.
