Using the Sparkfun Motor Driver 1A Dual TB6612FNG using Arduino

As a beginner myself, I struggled to find a one-stop set of instructions to get up and running with Sparkfun’s Motor Driver 1A Dual TB6612FNG.  This motor driver breakout board is exceptional value, is beautifully small, but does need a little more effort to get it working. The TB6612FNG is an H-Bridge driver – I

Arduino compatible circuit

Perfboard Hackduino Arduino-compatible circuit

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

How I’m building my bi-copter with Android and Arduino

Last year I was fascinated by the “How to build your own Quadrocopter” by Lenz Grimmer and decided that somehow I should try to do a similar thing. This talk is about the way I’m building a bi-copter using lessons learned for last year’s talk and also with the errors I’ve made so far. My

Arduino Double Dice Jewelry Box w/ Secret Switch

This was a fun project. Push the red button, watch the dice ” ROLL ” then stop on a random roll most every time. The hart of this game is the ATMEL ATmega328P on a stand alone board. Powered by 4 AA NiMD batteries. Can you find the SECRET SWITCH in the main picture? Where is
