Pinout for version 1.0.0 – 1.0.1 Unfortunatly I did this backwards. Newer boards 1.0.2 and up will have this corrected. Pinout for version 1.0.2+ Arduino You can use the Arduino to program the board. However in order to program this directly you will need a 8mhz crystal on pin 2 and 3 of the ATtiny85.…
Access Control Lists (ACL) Mobile Backend Services are awesome, but sometimes you need them to be limited to some users. Thats where Access Control Lists (ACL) come in. The ACL object implements access control lists for mobile backend service objects. An access control list controls read and write access to any mobile backend service objects…
Another project I did for a friend of mine was called “Rick Roll”. It’s basically a board that just plays a Rick Astley song. /* This sketch uses the buzzer to play songs. The Arduino’s tone() command will play notes of a given frequency. We’ll provide a function that takes in note characters (a-g), and…
So my 5050 lights came in and they are a little bigger than I thought they would be. So now I had to remove the second RGB lights I had put in. I did find a small error with the power supply. It was hooked up backwards. Glad I triple checked that. I also double…
FIRST STEP One of my first projects I wanted to try was a mood light. I’ve seen a number of these on the internet, so I thought I would try my hand at one. Ok, I know its not the most difficult project, but baby steps. The first thing I did was design my board.…
The other day I was on Ebay looking for small microcontroller to put into my projects. I was looking for the cheapest, smallest (TQFP package), most bang for my buck microcontroller I could find. I came across this ATMega88P-20AU deal . Five for $11.45 or best offer. So I offered them $10 and two and a half…
So lately, I have had an interest in building something physical instead of just coding. So I have been building electronic “things” using my Arduino. While doing these projects I found that programing small chips while using an Arduino involved a lot of wires and connections. Why did it need to be so messy? How…
