Hello again,
I think I am ready to look at microcontrollers to simplify my tinkering. I was wondering if you could point me in the right direction...
I enjoy making stand alone gadgets like solar pool heater pump controllers, and several unfinished projects like a trail camera timer.
Is there a system out there that allows me to prototype and test the circuit, then move the programmed chip to a circuit board? I don't mind $10-$20 to buy a pre-made board with i/o , jack and chip sockets all ready there. I'd rather not spend a hundred bucks a pop for every gadget I dream up... How about Arduino Uno? Do they have this type of system? I have several Radio Shacks nearby.....
I took a class in assembly language, as well as visual basic, so I have a little knowledge about loops and such. Thanks!
