Virtuabotix Bareduino Plus- Arduino Compatible Microcontroller with Power Regulator
Need lots of Arduino compatible controllers, but don't need the price tag that comes with a full development platform?This handy little kit is perfect for anyone who is experienced with the Arduino platform, and needs to include a lot more of them in his/her next project.Make a project on a breadboard, tie as many ATMEGA328's together as you need to.The sky is the limit, and you don't have to buy in bulk to get a great deal!The Bareduino328 Plus gives the added bonus of allowing you to power off an external rail without risk to your Bareduino and other 5 Volt devices.Package Contents:• 1 x P-DIP ATMEGA328P-PU programmed with Duemilanove Bootloader• 3 x Through-Hole 22pF Capacitors (2 for crystal and 1 for Analog power smoothing)• 1 x Through-Hole HC-49S 16 MHz Crystal (for clock)• 1 x 5 Volt regulator (peak current 2 A, nominal )->(L7805ACP Input Voltage = 7.5 to 18 VOutput Voltage Low 4.8 Volts Nominal 5 Volts  High 5.2 Volts)• 1 x 22 uF Capacitor (to stabilize power rail during rapid current draw.)Key Features:• Lower the cost and size of your next project• Ideal for minimalistic deployments• easily tie multiple controllers together to perform more complex tasks than possible with a single Microcontroller• Greatly simplifies the process of adding power to your device, and allows user to safely draw greater current if needed.
