best arduino for Xbee series 1

please help, what is the best arduino to use with xbee series 1 ???

eaglesameh,

The “best” Arduino is the one that “best” fits your requirements for:

  • - input/output (analog, digital, specialized)
  • - computing
  • - memory
  • - size
  • - weight
  • - power (operating voltage, energy consumption)
  • - voltage
  • - budget
  • among other things.

    I suggest you start by figuring out what you need in each of those categories, then visit the [SparkFun Arduino Buying Guide to see what meets your needs.

    After you have done that, if you still have questions, feel free to post again with a description of what you are doing, what you’ve identified as your needs, and which Arduinos you believe meet them.

    Have Fun,

    all of what you 've mentioned helped me a lot , and i decided to go with the arduino uno

    but the thing I wanna be sure , does it supply 3.3 v to xbee series 1 ??

    what i mean, that I don’t have to use the xbee converter board from 5V to 3.3 v ???
