nThe LilyPad Arduino can be powered via the USB connection or with an external power supply.
n
nIf an external power supply is used, it should provide between 2.7 and 5.5 volts. This can come either from an AC-to-DC adapter (wall-wart) or battery. Again, don’t power the LilyPad Arduino with more than 5.5 volts, or plug the power in backwards: you’ll kill it.
n
nThe LilyPad Arduino can be programmed with the Arduino Arduino Software (IDE). Select “LilyPad Arduino” from the Tools > Board menu (according to the microcontroller on your board). For details, see the reference and tutorials.
