Selecting Board Type and ProcessorSelecting the Board Type and Processor is required to compile the correct code for the core module. Configuring the software is done under Tools > Board and Tools > Processor. Below is the table which lists all the core modules with corresponding Board and Processor. The table also lists kits that contain specific core modules. Example usage would be for the Core module in Itty Bitty City. Board is Microduino/mCookie-Core (328p) and Processor is Atmega328P@16M,5V.
