This board needs FTDI cable to program it. It is not Arduino compatible in the meaning of taking shields (just like every small form factor board isn’t). But it has all the same pins (exept 3.3V power and Vin*) available as female headers. The input and output pins that are right next to each other […]

I buy a lot of these stackable Arduino header sets because they are handy for a lot of things. I make some breakout boards with them, I use them to add some clearance between a taller shield and the next shield that I am stacking on top, and sometimes they are necessary when a shield

In this, my first Instructable I’m going to show you how to make a stripped down Arduino for a fraction of the price, using Stripboard/Veroboard. Material List: 1x Atmel ATMega168 = �2.65 1x Stipboard = 72p 1x 7805 Voltage regulator = 26p 2x LEDs = 16p 2x 220 Ohm resistors = 8p 1x 10k Ohm

I love the Arduino as a simple and accessible controller platform for many varied projects. A few months ago, a purchased an Ethernet shield for my Arduino controller to work on some projects with a mate of mine – it was a massive hit – for the first time, I could control my projects remotely

Arduilay is an 8 channel AC relay box for use with Arduino, Max/MSP, Processing, etc. I designed this system as an alternative to the USB>DMX 4 channel relay option. While DMX gives you dimming control, the setup is easily 5 times as expensive as this simple relay box. Step 1: Get all the parts To

Thanks to: http://jeonlab.wordpress.com/ Since I have read an article on todbot blog, I bought a couple of Wii Nunchucks from ebay. I don’t remember how much I paid for them, but it was much cheaper than buying the accelerometer breakout boards. With the nunchuck data reading library shared by todbot (Thanks!), I could easily read the accelerometer data

This is a very low cost and simple Arduino GSM and GPRS shield. We use the module SIMCom SIM900 . It’s the cheaper module now available in the market. The module is not simple to mount by an hobbyst, so we use the Breakboard TDGGSM_900 that we presented here . You can buy the GSM

Never again will you have to dismantle a finished project just to reuse an Arduino board! This tutorial will go through the steps involved in fabricating your own Arduino-compatible circuit using just ~$8 of parts (this includes the ATMega chip!). This is perfect for installing and embedding in permanent pieces, as you don’t need to waste a
