A couple of months ago I started playing with Eagle. Something I had always wanted to try but never had the time or courage to get started. After playing with Arduino’s and a Dagu Red Back Spider I had the idea to design a board with the ATmega328P-PU and a powerful 3A 5V switchmode regulator. [...]
After successfully designing and soldering my first PCB it’s time to take things a little further and design my own Arduino, the Bajduino :p. I’ve bought all the necessary electronic components to make a lot of boards. So now I only need to finish my PCB designs and have them made by Seeedstudio or Iteadstudio [...]
I already bought a single ATmega 328P-PU microcontroller, I got it from the official Arduino store and it came with the bootloader already on it. I didn’t have much trouble putting sketches on the chip when I put it on a breadboard. While searching for information on how to accomplish this I read that putting [...]
The Arduino Uno together with the Arduino IDE is an easy way to program the Atmel ATmega 328P micro controller. You don’t really need to buy an Arduino board if you want to play with the Arduino IDE. You can just buy an Atmel ATmega 328P, 2 capacitors, a crystal and a 10K resistor. Plug [...]
