As soon as we start getting familiar with the basics of Arduino, we start noticing some interesting components that are not commonly used on the Arduino. One of these things are the ICSP headers. They ...

The project utilizes an Atmel8 AVR as the heart of the board to create an Arduino compatible breadboard. The USB to serial communication board used in this project utilizes a FT232 USB breakout board.

With their cheap price tags, massive I/O provisions, and low power consumption, microcontrollers like the uber-popular Arduino family have diverse use cases, from simple automation projects to full-on ...

I’m always a little surprised that we don’t see more ARM-based projects. Of course, we do see some, but the volume isn’t what I’d expect given that low-level ARM chips are cheap, capable, low power, ...

Arduino enthusiasts or those looking to get started using the awesome micro controller platform might be interested in a new Arduino compatible built-in breadboard that has been created with Arduino ...

Before opening the Arduino software, wire up the Arduino according to the circuits page using the 8MHz minimalist breadboard circuit but with a 10k pull-up resistor on the reset pin (physical pin 1).

The Arduino Esplora is a ready-to-use, easy-to-hold controller that lets you explore the infinite possibilities you have in the world of Arduino, without having to deal with breadboards or soldering.

Before the Arduino took over the hobby market (well, at least the 8-bit segment of it), most hackers used PIC processors. They were cheap, easy to program, had a good toolchain, and were at the heart ...
