INTRODUCTION TO DUINO:
Arduino hardware is programmed using a Wiring-based language (syntax + libraries), similar to C++ with some simplifications and modifications, and a Processing-based Integrated Development Environment (IDE).
The project began in Ivrea, Italy in 2005 aiming to make a device for controlling student-built interaction design projects less expensively than other prototyping systems available at the time. As of February 2010 more than 120,000 Arduino boards had been shipped. Founders Massimo Banzi and David Cuartielles named the project after a local bar named Arduino. The name is an Italian masculine first name, meaning "strong friend". The English pronunciation is "Hardwin", a namesake of Arduino of Ivrea.
More information could be found at the creators web page http://arduino.cc/ and in the Arduino Wiki http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arduino
To make the story short - Arduino is easy for beginners who lack Electronics knowledge, but also does not restrict professionals as they can program it in C++ or mix of Arduino/C++ language.
There are thousands of projects which makes it easy to startup as there is barely no field where Arduino enthusiasts to have not been already.
Arduino has inspired two other major derivates - MAPLE and PINGUINO. Based on 8-bit AVR technology the computational power of Arduino boards is modest, this is why a team from MIT developed the MAPLE project which is based on ARM7 STM32F103RBT6 microcontroller. The board has same friendly IDE as Arduino and offers the same capabilities as hardware and software but runs the Arduino code much faster. The Maple project can be found at http://leaflabs.com
In parallel with Arduino another project was started called PINGUINO. This project chose its first implementation to be with PIC microcontrollers, as AVRs were hard to find in some parts of the world like South America so it is likely to see lot of PINGUINO developers are from that part of the world. PINGUINO project founders decided to go with Python instead Java for processing language. For the moment PINGUINO is much more flexible than Arduino as it is not limited to 8bit microcontrollers. Currently the IDE, which has GCC in background, can support 8-bit PIC microcontrollers, 32bit PIC32 (MIPS) microcontrollers and ARM7/CORTEXM3 microcontrollers which makes PINGUINO very flexible because once you make your project you can migrate easily through different hardware platforms and not being bound to a single microcontroller manufacturer. The PINGUINO project can be found at: http://www.pinguino.cc.

BOARD FEATURES:
We entered the Arduino/MAPLE field 5 years after the design was introduced, and this allowed us to see and resolve some of (what we consider) errors made by the Arduino inventors :-)
We had the possibility to read current customer feedback and to implement what they wanted to see in the original Arduino.
1. Original Arduino/MAPLE uses linear power supply, this limits the input
voltage range. We designed the power supply to accept power from 9 to 30V DC thus making it possible to take virtually any power supply adapter on the market, also enable application which are in industrial power supply 24VDC.
2. We carefully selected all components to work reliable in INDUSTIRAL
temperature range -25+85C so the board can be used in INDUSTIRAL applications
while the original design is to Commercial 0 - 70C operating temperature.
3. The original Arduino/MAPLE design is not very reliable for portable ap-
plications as consumes it too much power with the linear voltage regulators, we put ULTRA LOW POWER voltage regulators and the consumption is only few mi­croampers, which enables handheld and battery powered applications.
4. We add Li-Ion rechargable battery power supply option with BUILD-IN on
board charger, so when you attach battery it is automatically charged and kept in this state until the other power source (USB or external adapter) is removed and it AUTOMATICALLY will power the board - no jumpers, no switches!
5. Our board has UEXT connector which allows many existing modules like
RF, ZIGBEE, GSM, GPS to be connected.
6. Our board has SD-MMC card
7. Our board has CAN driver on board
8. Our design allows RTC - Real Time Clock.
9. We made our design noise immune.
10. We use separate voltage regulator for the Analog part, which allows the ADC to be read correctly without the digital noise pickup.
11. Optionally if someone needs higher precision and temperature stability in Analog reading we have provided place on the board for Aref precise source.
12. The LEDs and the BUTTONs are on the edge of the board so there is easy access even if the boards have shields on them.
13. All components are LOWER than the connectors, so the shields do not in­terfere with them.
14. mini USB connector is used which is common and used in most cell phones, so you do not have to buy other cables
15. Original Arduino design had a flaw and the connectors were not spaced at
0.1" thus making breadboarding board use impossible, to keep the compatibility we have the same spacing but we added next to this connector on 0.1" which customer can use with perforated boards.

16. All signals on the connectors are printed on top and on bottom of the board, so when you check with probe you know exactly which port you are measuring.
17. 4 mount holes make board attachment easier
ELECTROSTATIC WARNING:
The OLIMEXINO-STM32 board is shipped in protective anti-static packaging. The board must not be subject to high electrostatic potentials. General practice for working with static sensitive devices should be applied when working with this board.
BOARD USE REQUIREMENTS:
Cables: You'll need mini USB cable for connecting the board to PC. For
programming - the cable you will need depends on the programmer/debugger you use. If you use ARM-USB-TINY or ARM-USB-TINY-H, you will need USB A-B cable, if you use ARM-USB-OCD or ARM-USB-OCD-H, you will need USB A-B cable and RS232 cable.
Hardware: Programmer/Debugger ARM-USB-OCD, ARM-USB-OCD-H,
ARM-USB-TINY, ARM-USB-TINY-H, ARM-JTAG-COOCOX or other
compatible programming/debugging tool if you work with EW-ARM. You will also need ARM-JTAG-20-10 adapter for programming the board since the JTAG connector is the small one (0.05'' step).

Please consider reading the paragraph below about the warranty of Olimex products.
Warranty and returns:
Our boards have lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects and components.
During development work it is not unlikely that you can burn your programmer or development board. This is normal, we also do development work and we have damaged A LOT of programmers and boards during our daily job so we know how it works. If our board/programmer has worked fine then stopped, please check if you didn't apply over voltage by mistake, or shorted something in your target board where the programmer was connected etc. Sometimes boards might get damaged by ESD shock voltage or if you spill coffee on them during your work when they are powered.
Please note that warranty do not cover problems caused by unproper use, shorts, over-voltages, ESD shock etc.
If the board has warranty label it should be not broken. Broken labels void the warranty, same applies for boards modified by the customer, for instance soldering additional components or removing components - such boards will be not be a subject of our warranty.
If you are positive that the problem is due to manufacturing defect or component you can return the board back to us for inspection.
When we receive the board we will check and if the problem is caused due to our fault and we will repair/replace the faulty hardware free of charge, otherwise we can quote price of the repair.
Note that all shippings back and forth have to be covered by the customer. Before you ship anything back you need to ask for RMA. When you ship back please attach to it your shipping address, phone, e-mail, RMA# and brief description of the problem. All boards should be sent back in antistatic package and well packed to prevent damages during the transport.
