As I wrote in Chopstick Junior 1.0 (there you can see it in the robot) here comes the part with the Arduino Nano on a PCB.Why I did this?Well, it’s just a try to use the Arduino Nano for other robots too. This gives me the chance to remove the MC and put it in another robot or just upgrade this one
I just finished my version of this same board. I am just checking it over and will probably send it out today. Mine is a very similar set-up as well. The only few diferences is that I stuck a motor driver on mine and arranged the pins a bit differently. Other than that, our boards could be brothers! Nice work
Yeah, the thing with this board is that it can be expanded…like motor driver as you did. I really like the Nano since the most of the projects can be done with this little guy. But to connect something and then also attach the MC to something is a pain in the a**. So I just did what had to be done
I will probably add more o this board when I need to, since the development of this robot just started need some sensors, LED’s and perhaps a cam on it…the board will be adapted to the new needs. I am wondering how it ends up…maybe i even build my own customized Arduino clone when it’s done.
PS: wrong button…but yeah, thats the answer of your comment Chris
If you are able to solder then you can make one by yourself. It’s pretty easy, nothing fancy to it. Just solder some header pins on the board and wire them up.
