Hi all. I somehow documented one project that I consider successful. It is a very flexible prototype board<br />for ATMEGA8. Take a look at <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://speleoastronomy.org/elektro/FlexyBoard.html">http://speleoastronomy.org/elektro/FlexyBoard.html</a><!-- m --><br />and comment if you like.<br /><br />If anybody is interested, I can provide more information, including some software libraries and a <br />complete video guide for making this board at home.<br /><br />Currently I am using MSVC+WTL and/or C# to communicate with a board and quite a lot of compatible<br />hardware, including LCDs, thermometers, light meter, stepper motor controller etc. with software examples.<br /><br />The final goal of all this work is to make something that could be called PLC at home - a simple board for<br />home automation and such, with a PLC compatible graphical programming language. However I am not sure<br />that this board is good for this task. It requires too much drilling and it can not handle the filesystem on<br />SD card (but it can write logs on SD). So here is the general question for all home PCB makers: what is <br />worse - more SMD components or more holes in a board ?<p>Statistics: Posted by <a href="https://forums.obdev.at/memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&amp;u=1135">alexn</a> — Thu Jun 25, 2009 8:40 pm</p><hr />
