This ATMega328 chip holds a pre-burned bootloader, allows you to upload code without using any additional hardware. So if you are in a plan to make your own open source microcontroller platform – ...

A short list of supplies is required, including an Arduino, a proto shield kit, a ZIF socket, and a blank ATmega chip. The process is probably pretty straightforward and likely familiar to many of ...

Arduino devices historically used 8-bit Atmega microcontroller chips from Atmel, processors that are very limited by today's standards and that run low-level software for AVR-architecture chips.

Chipmaker Arduino s.r.l. today introduced a new microcontroller board, the Uno R4, that offers significantly higher performance than its previous-generation hardware. Switzerland-based Arduino is ...

The VGA standard of 640×480 @ 60 fps requires pixels to be clocked out at 25.175 MHz, and the ATMega chips found in Arduinos top out at 20 MHz.

However, for the true Arduino fanatic there's nothing quite like building your very own Arduino Compatible prototyping board. Aside from requiring a special cable to program the ATmega chip, the ...

In the past Arduino developers has to use devices devices equipped with 8-bit Atmega micro-controller chips from Atmel, that offered a very limited amount of scope by today’s standards and that ...

First of all, follow the wiring indicator, just pick your USBasp programmer, and connect it to the Arduino board/ATmega328P chip. Note that the output socket/connection cable of the USBasp programmer ...

The idea behind the Arduino is simple: to create a system that allows electronic circuits to be created, modified, and tested in minutes - complete with a programmable chip in the centre to take ...
