ATmega AVR Development Board

Posted by Mohammad On September - 14 - 2008 5 COMMENTS

Today I have just completed building the brain of my Robot, the MCU Board using ATmega8 AVR Microcontroller. This MCU Board can be powered by 6V Adapter or 5 1.2V NiMH Rechargable Batteries. ATmega8 AVR runs on 5V, and thet’s the reason I used National Semiconductor’s Low Dropout Voltage Regulator LM2940T.

For programming the AVR, I am using AVRISP mkII In-System Programmer and AVR Studio Development IDE. The MCU Board has two I/O Ports – 8-Bit PORTD and 6-Bit PORTB, and 6-channel ADC. For PORTD and PORTB headers, the Vcc can be selected as either 5V or 6V, using the two yellow jumpers (red-marked). The board also provides 5V output headers to power up external device(s).

Supported AVRs: ATmega8, ATmega48, ATmega88, ATmega168.

    Can you please direct me to a schematic for your version of the Atmega8 board? Or can you please go into some detail about it (pictures of both sides, etc.).

    It looks similar to the AVR board for the “$50 robot”. Did you use this design as a starting point?

    Would love to build your version!
