Here’s a no-PCB Arduino that doesn’t obscure the DIP footprint of the AVR chip. It’s built on an ATmega88 chip, and includes a programming header, reset button, a couple of filtering caps, and an LED.

Makers, developers and hobbyists that are looking for a virtual breadboard might be interested in a new application and service created by James Caska based in Amsterdam. The PCB Direct virtual ...

Arduino enthusiasts or those that are looking to learn a little more about the Arduino platform might be interested in a new piece of hardware created by Piote that combines both an Arduino and a ...

As soon as you see a BreadShield in action, you realize how much time you could have saved over the years, and at three for $15, the price isn’t bad either. I receive an extraordinary number of emails ...

Before opening the Arduino software, wire up the Arduino according to the circuits page using the 8MHz minimalist breadboard circuit but with a 10k pull-up resistor on the reset pin (physical pin 1).

Hardware hacking often seems like black magic to the uninitiated, which is why 123D Circuits is so cool: it allows you to learn electronics using a virtual Arduino board and breadboard without blowing ...

You’d be hard pressed to find a carpenter who didn’t own a hammer, or a painter that didn’t have a couple of brushes kicking around. Some tools are simply so fundamental to their respective craft that ...

We will refer to these article collections as “Breadboards,” “Tools,” and “Components” for short. We’re assuming that we are in possession of a full-size breadboard and associated wires (Components, ...
