It is fully compatible with Arduino Uno R3, Arduino Mega 2560, Arduino Due, and many clones. It also works with older printers, scanners, and some audio interfaces that use the same connector. It supports both data transfer and 5V power delivery as per USB 2.0 standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWiring Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eSimply plug the Type-A end into your computer or USB power supply, and the Type-B end into the Arduino board. The cable requires no additional drivers; the standard USB CDC driver used by Arduino IDE handles the connection automatically. Ensure a firm connection to avoid intermittent resets during upload.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy from Compoden\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery component is sourced from verified suppliers and tested for compatibility before listing. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. Ships from Bengaluru in 3-5 days. If defective on arrival, replace within 7 days.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eIs this compatible with Arduino Uno R3?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, it perfectly matches the USB Type-B port on the Uno R3 and all earlier versions with the same connector.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eCan I use this cable for just power, not data?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eAbsolutely. It will supply 5V to the Arduino’s USB port, but note that some boards may skip the voltage regulator when powered via USB, so ensure your external circuitry is within safe limits.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eDoes it have a ferrite bead for noise suppression?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis cable does not include a ferrite bead, but the shielding is sufficient for typical benchtop use. In high-noise environments, adding a snap-on ferrite core can further reduce EMI.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"compoden-handoff\" style=\"margin-top:24px;padding:16px;background:#f0f4ff;border-left:4px solid #2B4D8F;border-radius:4px;\"\u003e\n  \u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 6px 0;font-weight:600;color:#1A3560;\"\u003e📦 Free Setup Handoff Document Included\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp style=\"margin:0;font-size:0.95em;color:#333;\"\u003eEvery Compoden order includes a free setup handoff document — step-by-step instructions to get your component working within minutes.
