DIY Arduino Kit- How to Make your own Arduino UNO

Do-it-yourself-DIY-Arduino (3)

We are now selling BLUE colored DIY Arduino kit.  

You know that there are several versions of Arduino hardware. Hobbyists have also made Arduinos on strip boards giving different looks. Here’s one more Arduino, that is a simple do-it-yourself (DIY) kit. It is just like any other Arduino UNO board. However, it does not have FT232RL chip, therefore, you would need a separate FTDI basic module to burn your sketch.

This kit contains everything you need to build your very own Uno-compatible DIY Arduino board. Simply follow the Assembly Guide and after some basic soldering, you’ll have made a fully-functional Arduino-compatible development board. The included ATmega328 comes pre-loaded with the “Optiboot” bootloader so you don’t have to worry about loading the firmware, simply solder it together, connect an FTDI Basic and load your favorite sketch using the Arduino IDE.

After the board is assembled, it can be powered by an FTDI connection or a regulated 6-15VDC power supply connected to either the DC Barrel jack or the 2 pin screw terminal.

Note: You will need either an FTDI Basic or FTDI cable to load code using the Arduino IDE.

How to program Amarino lamp

Recommended app

To know about Amarino lamp, visit this page. 

Amarino lamp is fully programmable. The kit package consists of FTDI basic breakout board, you can use it to program the lamp. The lamp is based on Arduino.

Connect the FTDI basic breakout board to the lamp, open the Arduino programming interface and upload your sketch.

REMEMBER: Turn off the red colored 1P DIP switch 1-position-2p-side-style-dip-switch-redwhile uploading sketch(if the Bluetooth module has been stacked over the 4 pin female header)

How to assemble serial LCD kit

You can use this kit for displaying serial messages from Arduino. The kit is itself a programmable Arduino board that comes with ATmega328p. You just need to upload a serial LCD firmware to the ATmega328p chip of the kit and your kit is ready to display serial messages from Arduino. Read everything about the kit and serial LCD firmware from here.

Make Arduino on breadboard using FTDI breakout board

About FTDI FT232RL breakout board: This tutorial is about making Arduino on breadboard using a basic FTDI FT232RL based breakout board.The pinout of this breakout board matches the FTDI cable to work with official Arduino and cloned 5V Arduino boards. It can also be used for general serial applications. The major difference with this board is that it brings out the DTR pin as opposed to the RTS pin of the FTDI cable. The DTR pin allows an Arduino target to auto-reset when a new Sketch is downloaded. This is a really nice feature to have and allows a sketch to be downloaded without having to hit the reset button. This board will auto reset any Arduino board that has the reset pin brought out to a 6-pin connector. (more…)
