Gadgetboard 1.0 announced
For those of you who like playing with microcontroller hardware,
OpenCollector.org
has an announcement for version 1.0 of
Gadgetboard.
"
The Gadgetboard is a user friendly Atmel proto board on steroids. The ATMEGA32 comes programmed with a command-line interface which runs over the serial port, allowing the user to read the 8 analog inputs and set the 8 outputs. Four of the high current MOSFET outputs optionally drive 15-amp relays, while the other 4 MOSFETS are driven by the Atmel's 4 onboard PWM channels. All inputs and outputs are ESD-protected, and are connected to screw terminals. Prototype your gadget in three easy steps." The design is free, and the support software is Linux-compatible.
