I make a lot of breakout boards that I usually use in my hobby projects. Most are input/output devices but some are microcontroller breakout boards.
Let me share them with you.
DIY Digital Thermometer 2

Few months ago, I published my first DIY digital thermometer. However, like any simple projects/prototypes, that project needs some improvements. Previously, I used a voltage regulator that has a 100mA rating. Though it was able to source current to the whole circuit, it gets too hot easily. Another problem with that was that the voltage regulator was very close to the sensor. Since the voltage regulator heated up easily, it always affected the temperature reading of the digital thermometer.
To solve those problems, I came up with a second version of digital thermometer. [Read more...]

This project is a digital thermometer that uses a microcontroller with analog-to-digital capability, an analog temperature sensor, and some seven-segment displays. The circuit is pretty simple and it can be powered by a 9-volt battery which makes it very portable.
Please continue to read as I go a bit deeper to the details of what builds this easy project. [Read more...]
