Arduino board based on ATmega644p
A DIY Arduino type hardware board based on ATmega644p Atmega1284p This project is free and based on @MCUDude's MightyCore which has awesome well designed kits for serious development with AVR's. Mightyduino is an Arduino with more memory than an Arduino Pro mini. It can use 644p (64k)...

PID temperature control with Arduino UNO. If you want to keep something at a certain temperature, say a block of aluminum, you’ll need a thermocouple and some sort of heating element. While you could turn a heater on and off abruptly in a sequence appropriately known as...
Continue ReadingColor Detector Using TCS230 Color sensor and Arduino
Hi guys, welcome to today’s tutorial. In this tutorial we will look at how to use the TCS230 color sensor with Arduino. To demonstrate the ability of the color sensor, we will build a color detector system capable of detecting the color in front of the sensor and displaying that color...

The Digispark board is one of the smallest Arduino boards ever produced and is copyrighted by Digistump LLC. Although it is tiny, it is also very powerful and powered by an ATTINY85 chip clocked up to 16.5Mhz (about the same speed as Arduino Uno boards). So Digispark is simply a...
