Where is the document that introduces what the Arduino Mega 2560 board is, what it is used for, and explains all of the various items in the image at:
This image of the Mega 2560 board has all the connectors labeled. But this image assumes that you are an experienced user, e.g. the following technical terms are not defined: ICSP Pinout, IDE, Serial Pin, Analog Pin, Control, Physical Pin, Port Pin, Interrupt Pin, Communication, Power, Analog In. All of those terms, and many others, need a straight-forward explanation.
Questions:
What voltage, wattage, and current can the pins sense?
What does ICSP, PWM, Communication mean?
How do the RX, TX, and L light emitting diodes differ? What do they signal?
Please point me to the document. Thanks Tom
...and of course here is detailed product description Arduino Mega 2560 Rev3 — Arduino Official Store.
If you want to "dig deep" you can check the [u]datasheet for the ATmega chip[/u]. You won't want to read all 400 pages, but you can check specific things like, what's the minimum voltage for a logic-high, or the maximum voltage for a logic-low, or how fast can the analog-to-digital converter sample, etc.?

A single document won't help, instead a library is required for your studies.
Start with electric, electronic and maths fundamentals, advance to logic and boolean algebra, digital and analog electronic circuits, communication theory, only to name a few basic topics you should know in order to understand the answers to your questions.
But I assume that you only are trolling, by enumerating a number of buzzwords. Can you enumerate also your skills in above areas?
Or simply get an Arduino Starter Kit and start exploring that mysterious land yourself.
