Arduino Project to Product-Part 3-How to Build an Arduino on a Breadboard

2019-06-24 | By Maker.io Staff

Breadboards Arduino

In this video, Shawn Hymel demonstrates ways to reduce project current draw by eliminating unnecessary microcontroller support components. A bare-bones microntroller is set up on a breadboard with only the essential elements and is programmed using an Arduino Uno as an ISP (In-System Programmer) or a USB FTDI breakout board. The breadboard details and IDE configuration for each scenario are clearly explained.
