Arduino Barebone

Have you ever wanted to create your own project using Arduino but without the Uno board? Arduino Barebone: this is all about taking the AT Mega 328 microcontroller (Arduino Uno brain) and creating a functional Arduino-like circuit.

In this 2 hour packed with information you will learn:

• How to assemble a barebone circuit using a breadboard (like the one in the picture)

• Loading the bootloader into the microcontroller chip

• Understand the difference between SPI and UART interfaces (when to use each when interfacing with Microcontrollers to load your sketch)

• Load sketches to your board

• Powering alternatives to your barebone circuit

• Debug the circuit and common troubleshooting scenarios Please bring your laptop: you won't be able to attend this class without it...

We'll have kits for use during the class. [IMPORTANT] Pre-requisites

1. Arduino 101 workshop (Arduino IDE installation and usage, loading sketches to board, serial monitoring and basic coding) or equivalent knowledge.

2. Computer setup - All you need is Arduino IDE. If you still don't have it or you don't know what Arduino IDE is, this workshop is not for you - yet!

Max class size of 4.
