xBoard MINI v2.1

xBoard MINI v2.0 is an advance development board for 28 PIN Atmel AVR MCUs like ATmega8, ATmega168 etc. Beginner can use it as a tool to learn microcontroller programming while advance user can use it as a base for complex project. The advantage is that you get a fully tested and well designed board with many peripherals. The tutorials guide you from the very beginning and covers most commonly used techniques useful for embedded projects.

The board is designed so as to reduce the mess to minimum. The board has everything on board to reduce external wiring during the first learning period. This ensure maximum positive results during initial experimentation.

Huge amount of fully debugged and quality C sample code can serve as a base for numerous projects. This make tasks which seems impossible to beginner, very easy to accomplish.

Unlike others we are not selling just the board. What is more worthy is the bundled tutorials and codes specifically designed for the board. These tutorials gives you a very smooth path to reach your goals. Add to these the Full-fledged, Industrial Strength Projects supplied with the board, these serve as a treasure house of knowledge. These can be quickly modified to your need and deployed as a solution!
