SparkFun Bluetooth Mate Silver

The Bluetooth Mate is very similar to our BlueSMiRF modem, but it is designed specifically to be used with our Arduino Pros and LilyPad Arduinos. These modems work as a serial (RX/TX) pipe, and are a great wireless replacement for serial cables. Any serial stream from 2400 to 115200bps can be passed seamlessly from your computer to your target.

Bluetooth Mate has the same pin out as the FTDI Basic, and is meant to plug directly into an Arduino Pro, Pro Mini, or LilyPad Mainboard. Because we’ve arranged the pins to do this, you cannot directly plug the Bluetooth Mate to an FTDI Basic board.

The RN-42 is perfect for short range, battery powered applications. The RN-42 uses only 26uA in sleep mode while still being discoverable and connectable. Multiple user configurable power modes allow the user to dial in the lowest power profile for a given application. The Bluetooth Mate has on-board voltage regulators, so it can be powered from any 3.3 to 6VDC power supply. We’ve got level shifting all set up so the RX and TX pins on the remote unit are 3-6VDC tolerant.

Microcontroller

A microcontroller is a small computer on a single Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (MOS) integrated circuit (IC) chip. A microcontroller contains one or more CPUs (Processor Cores) along with memory and programmable input/output peripherals. Program memory in the form of ferroelectric RAM, NOR flash or OTP ROM is also often included on chip, as well as a small amount of RAM. Microcontrollers are designed for embedded applications, in contrast to the microprocessors used in personal computers or other general purpose applications consisting of various discrete chips.

A microcontroller is a “Simple Computer” that runs one program in a loop. They are designed to perform a single, specific task. In this guide, we’ll be focusing on microcontrollers that have breakout boards, or a board that makes it easier to connect to and program the microcontroller. On a breakout board, the microcontroller pins are soldered to a printed circuit board, headers or other connectors are added to the PCB, and some basic firmware, or permanent software, is loaded to prep the microcontroller to receive signals.

There are different microcontrollers and it can be daunting to get started, especially if you’re just getting into electronics.

  • Arduino Uno, etc, (5V/16MHz, 3.3V/8MHz) is a microcontroller board based on the ATmega328.
  • Arduino Micro, etc, (5V/16MHz, 3.3V/8MHz) is a microcontroller board based on the ATmega32U4.
  • Arduino Mega 2560, etc, (5V/16MHz) is a microcontroller board based on the ATmega2560.
  • Arduino Due, etc, (3.3V/84MHz) is a microcontroller board based on the AT91SAM3X8E.
  • Arduino Zero, etc, (3.3V/48MHz) is a microcontroller board based on the ATSAMD21G18 ARM Cortex M0+.
  • Arduino Nano 33, etc, (3.3V/120MHz) is a microcontroller board based on the ATSAMD51 Cortex M4.
  • Espressif ESP32 WROOM, etc, (3.3V/240MHz) is a microcontroller board based on the Espressif Xtensa® dual-core 32-bit LX6.
  • Raspberry Pi 4 Model B (5.1V/1.5GHz) is a microcontroller board based on the Broadcom BCM2711, quad-core Cortex-A72 (ARM v8) 64-bit SoC.
  • Raspberry Pi Zero W (5.1V/1GHz) is a microcontroller board based on the Broadcom BCM2837B0 64-bit ARM Cortex-A53 Quad Core Processor SoC.

Micro OLED

Micro OLED displays are silicon-based OLED display that use a monocrystalline silicon wafer as the actively driven backplane, so it is easier to achieve high PPI (Pixel Density), a high degree of integration, and small size. This ensures they are easy to carry, have good anti-seismic performance, and have ultra-low power consumption.

Multi-Motor Control

In order to synchronize the multi-motor system, a novel method for this system based on embedded control terminal. A controller of the strategy with the function of synchronous control is also completed. According to the requirements of this system, a distributed control structure which based on Hierarchical Approach is chosen. The hardware platform of this structure is composed of embedded control terminal motor could be driven independently. The experiment results verified that the multi-motor system is reliable, the control strategy is rational applied this multi-motor system has better dynamic response and higher reliability.

ProtoScrewShield

The ProtoScrewShield extends all pins of the Arduino out to 3.5mm pitch screw terminals. It also has a lot of the utility provided including: a large prototyping space of both connected and unconnected 0.1″ spaced through-holes, a couple 5V and GND busses, a reset button, general use push button, and a 5mm yellow LED. This product includes all the parts shown and comes in kit form and must be soldered together by the end user.

4×4 Offroad Race

3D off-road racing game. Powerful off-road vehicles, trails and routes running on dirt roads, extreme weather conditions and violent opponents, all that we call 4×4 Offroad Race. You will be able to experience the most powerful four-wheel drive vehicles. You have to overcome terrible roads, do jumps over bumps and potholes and knock opponents off the track to win all the races.

Controller & Gamepad Tester

Controller Tester

You can begin testing your controller or gamepad by pressing a button or moving one of the analog sticks on your gamepad. When you press a button or move an analog stick, the illustration above should light up or display the movement of your analog stick. When we detect movement or button presses, the “Controller Detected” message will show up with your controller’s name in it. If you have multiple controllers or gamepads connected, then please try them one by one. Even though the illustration represents an Xbox controller, the test also works with other similar controllers.

Joystick Test Application

While experimenting with making my own controllers recently, I needed a nice visual way of testing them in Windows. As you can see it’s pretty simple and just shows a visual representation of each axis, POV and button. Currently it supports Joysticks with 8 axes, 4 POV and up to 128 buttons. I haven’t had a chance to test it with over 32 buttons so I would be interested to here from anyone who has such a device. It should work on XP upwards but I have only tested it on Windows 10 64 bit. You just need Net framework 3 and DirectX 9 to run it.
