Overview

The Netduino Plus is a 32-bit microcontroller development board designed for engineers and hobbyists who want to write embedded software in C# using the .NET Micro Framework. It combines the familiar Arduino form factor with Ethernet connectivity and a full TCP/IP stack, making it one of the first accessible platforms for networked microcontroller projects.

The board features 20 GPIO pins, 4 PWM channels, 6 ADC channels, and a microSD slot, while remaining compatible with most Arduino shields. It supports event-based programming, multi-threading, and line-by-line debugging — capabilities uncommon in 8-bit Arduino boards of its era.

The Netduino Plus connects via Micro-USB for power and programming, and includes a DC power jack for standalone operation. The onboard Ethernet port with full TCP/IP stack allows direct integration with web services and networked systems without external shields. It was succeeded by the Netduino Plus 2 with a faster 168MHz processor.
