Since you lacked the USB interface in your own Arduino board, it becomes necessary to use a homemade/ready-made USB to Serial Converter Module as an efficient and economical solution. Inexpensive and ...

Anyone who enjoys building electronic projects using the Arduino prototyping and would like to program their own Atmega328-PU chips. May be interested in a new Arduino prototyping kit and bootloader ...

The project illustrates an old Arduino USB board being hacked by finding the right pins and stringing a capacitor between the serial connector and the reset line. One side of the capacitor connects to ...

[Alexsoulis] needed to burn the Arduino bootloader to a slew of ATmega328 chips. Instead of sitting there and plugged the chips into a programmer one at a time, he build a robotic microcontroller ...

[jelengar] liked the ease of use of the Arduino, but wanted a much higher pin count. He set about converting the ATmega Controller for use with Wiring, the code that the Arduino IDE is based on. The ...

In this article, I'll be explaining the basics of how microcontrollers work, physically and virtually. First off, microcontrollers are no simple thing, so don't be discouraged if you find it ...

Adafruit has unveiled a new addition to their range in the form of the Adafruit Metro Mini 328 that has been designed dot provide a USB-to-Serial connection. The Adafruit Metro Mini 328 takes the form ...
