microcontroller-projects

A home for my microcontroller projects, including Stubby the Hexapod and others. It includes libraries for avr-gcc along with sample programs on how to use them, some KiCad modules, and the source code for a number of projects.

Some major projects include:

Some of the AVR libraries included here are:

  • serial communications
  • TWI (I2C), with support for master read / master write / slave read / slave write, plus callback functions for asyncronous communications
  • reading data from a PS2 controller
  • timer functions
  • and much more

Questions

How big is the Overcurrent PCB?

It measures 50 × 100 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Overcurrent use?

75 parts, built around the ATMEGA32U4-AU, 74LS125DC, LM324 and LM7805CT. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the Overcurrent KiCad files?

From the thebiguno/microcontroller-projects repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is projects/windy/kicad/overcurrent/overcurrent.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Overcurrent design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask thebiguno before reusing the design.
