MD-BB1

 

Mega Donkey Bareback (Mega 128 / No LCD)

 

MD-BB1 Features

16 MHz ATMega128 microcontroller (128K Program Flash, 4K RAM, 4K EEPROM)
No LCD Display Included

Extensive software library including graphics, communications, menu functions and more -- all backed by demo programs so you can see real world examples of their use (of course you would need a compatible LCD module or be able to write your own low-level drivers and provide appropriate electrical interface for your own LCD module or use without a display which is certainly a reasonable option for many applications

Two RS-232 (Male = Data Terminal Equipment Interface) ports supported by hardware UARTs onboard the microcontroller  and  a Texas Instruments MAX213 RS-232 receiver/driver.
Serial Communication jumpers allowing allocation of any combination of signals to RS-232 Driver & Receiver for each port, allowing up to 8 processor I/O pins to be freed for other uses if not needed for serial IO
ISP Connector for connection to serial programmer, e.g. Atmel STK-500
I2C Connector (two 5x1 pin headers available) for connection to I2C devices
JTAG Connector for connection to JTAG debugger/programmer
39 Pin (20 x 2  0.100" spaced male pins) header for interfacing to a wide variety of devices,  this connector is physically  compatible with cables used for old IDE hard drives (not pinout compatible)  which is handy for connecting your donkey to project boards where you want more space than is offered by the prototyping area
4 Low Power High Efficiency LEDs (software PWM intensity control available)
Mini 8-Ohm speaker supports variable pitch, and duration  tone generation 
Prototyping Area with lands for 8 pin SOIC and space available for up to a 40 pin DIP or several smaller devices
Power Input (via 2.1 mm center + jack) 7 to 24 VDC with reverse polarity protection provided to prevent frying your donkey if you accidentally reverse the polarity
