Hi guys....
I really hope someone can help me out I have no previous experience with your product but am a keen costume maker I live in the Uk (Leicester).
I have seen article were someone has used a Arduino Pro Mini Atmega328P 16MHz and other parts to make a working
compad (from star wars) see video link:-
While have amassed all the parts / board sequin LEDS (I have some wire) source code files though how I get them on the board I have no idea.
I have no idea what goes were – I have a photo of the back of the board and the wires so I may be able to work out that bit just the polarity for the LEDS. though do they need resistors etc etc .
Please can you help for a novice really would be so warmly received.
You want to make LEDs blink? That is the first tutorial that most new arduino users go through.
While have amassed all the parts / board sequin LEDS (I have some wire)
Make a list for us so we can advise you with that in mind.
(I have some wire) source code files though how I get them on the board I have no idea.
How you get the sketch on the board or how you get the wires on the board?
The wires will require soldering. Do you have experience?
The sketch will require a USB cable, the IDE on your PC/Mac and some setup.
Sparkfun has a tutorial on the 3.3v version. I assume you have the 5v version since you mentioned 16MHz.
If you can solder the wires to the proper pads on your board, this is a pretty simple task.
Don't be intimidated (by the electronics or by us).
Ask questions.
Hi the board is 16mhz voltage ????
Its still in the post.
I have plenty of soldering experience I have built simple velermann kits in the past
OK Issues
Leicester --- my problem lol
How to get the sketch on the board
3.wireing the LEDs
a. poilarity
b. resistors ?
4.can I add sounds to it all runs in continuous loop until switched off ?
have I bitten off to much
6.space is limited.
7.help please guys
