EDuino – Arduino or AVR breakout?
We’ve had a lot of requests in the comments for more Arduino centered posts so we were happy when [Njay] told us about his EDuino board. This is a minimal Arduino clone that has a crystal and it’s capacitors, a pull-up resistor and button on the reset pin, and a detachable serial programming connection. He also has a breadboard-friendly version seen above with all the interface pins on one side of the board. This is certainly a useful project and we’re glad to see the board files available for download. This does get us thinking… is this an Arduino, or is it an AVR ATmega168 breakoutboard that happens to use the Arduino boot loader and programming language?

We don’t like this post. It shows how you can make a fake arduino, damaging our profits. We paid you to post AUTHENTIC arduinos, not this crap.
@ rasz
I have a feeling he knows what it means. After your remark, though, you might want to look up ‘irony’ instead.Nice project. Not so much a hack as a product, though. Which I think is the problem with Arduino posts on this forum; too often it’s a simple bit of code to use one of its features.
People don’t go all ga-ga eyed when a person uses a swiss army knife to open a bottle, saw something, cut something else, pop a cork, and pick their teeth, since it’s designed to be versatile. Same for Arduino.
Finally an arduino.
Sarcasm – look it up Mike Szczys.

Gotta love it when a site trolls its readers…
Arduino – let the hateful comments begin.
