WOW!!! What an extraordinarily EXCELLENT series of amazing tutorials!!! Hope your series on each Arduino board will be coming soon. I'm especially eager to watch your Atiny85 board and chip programs. Many, MANY THANKS!!!
I just want to say that your video's are so well and clearly explained and helped me a lot to figure out some things using the Arduino boards. Keep on going! for the beginners: a good starting point to begin with Arduino is buying 1 arduino UNO board for developping/testing. Once the program is ready to be used you can easilly put the final version on a arduino pro mini board (same connections). You can power this pro mini board by putting 5V DC on VCC or 7-9V DC on the RAW pin (in case of 5V DC version board) . You can even adapt you program later on the pro mini board (if needed) using the FTDI adapter, so think about that when putting the board on his place.
I wish you had been my tutor, when I needed things explaining in tune with my ability back then . I am an old git now learning fantastic stuff from you, at a speed that matches someone of my age. Thanks to you I am having a ball with my arduinos and automating anything that moves!
I’m glad that you’re proudly wearing a grounding strap. Many RU-vidrs refuse to wear one while handling delicate equipment and boldly state that Electrostatic Discharge is a myth. Thank you for doing it right.
Thank you for this perfectly made tutorial! Perfect image, perfect sound quality (where is your mike???) and a clear language. So valuable for people like me with an other native language. Definetly among the best I've ever watched!
Some of the most elaborated and dilligently made tutorials i ever saw. Really, really helpful. Your HC-SR04 tutorial was very enlightening and inspiring. It helped me to make a big leap forward. Both in coding and circuit basics. Thank you very much for that. Keep up the great work for i am looking forward to many more inspiring arduino tutorials.
I am a java developer who has a background of basic electronics (technical high school). I recently decided to switch job from application development to IoT. This video is my very first tutorial about Arduino and it gave me lots of important knowledge to start my IoT journey. It was really useful. thank you for sharing your valuable knowledge.
Any idea when (or if) You will do a video on the ATTiny85 boards? In particular around setting up the communications, installing drivers etc. I'd really like to get into these small boards, but am not able to set up the communications (probably because I use a Macbook Pro). Your videos are really inspirational and well explanatory, so a video on the Attiny85 would be highly appreciated.
Recap: Use the Uno for prototyping or when you need a shield. For final state projects, use Nano or Pro Mini at best. For beefy projects, use Mega. For modest projects needing only few pins, use ATtiny. For serial communication needs (like if you need to communicate with a Raspberry Pi), preferrably use anything with a USB port, like a Mega, Uno or Nano.
Look closely at the pin journals on your Digispark T85, and you will find that it will plug *directly* into your breadboard's power rows, and 6 separate columns for the I/O. You should only solder the 5v and ground on the power side -- if you put that 3rd power pin in, it won't fit. Another interesting thing to do with your Digispark, is to build a USBtinyISP. If loaded on top of the Micronucleus bootloader, with the reset pin fused out, it can become an up-gradable ICSP that will program most any raw AVR8 chip through its native SPI interface.

The supplied pins on a NANO with the pins not soldered is the best way. Order the pin strips that had the AUGAT style pins. They are smaller and round and intended to go in an IC socket or breadboard. The supplied pins are intended for mating with a 3M style ribbon cable. I bought a large quantity of the long strips of the round pins to install in things like the NANO.

thank you sir for clearing my all doubts. I have one question why are you wearing blue band on your right hand, what is the purpose of that. please reply me if anyone knows.
First I want to thank Mr. for sharing your knowledge. His projects are fantastic. Mr. you can ask me a question! Is it possible to use Digispark Attiny85 with bluetooth module to control 4 leds? Thank you for your attention
The most noticeable thing in this video is the Antistatic wrist band that you are wearing. I think many kids are unaware of the antistatic measures. I use an Antistaic mat grounded to electric outlet, and a wrist band, and antistatic slippers. Would it serve the same purpose, if I work on a antistatic mat, and wear antistatic slippers, but do not tie the wrist band.
The mat on the left side of my workbench is also an antistatic mat and it is grounded. And those parts drawers behind me that look "pink" have an antistatic lining. I actually have intentions of doing a video describing antistatic procedures and safe handling of electronics, already wrote a short article on it at dbot.ws/statzap
More to the point, I find it bewildering anti-static procedures are so often ignored. It's a basic way to leave room for doubt in troubleshooting. If you go through the trouble of putting together a $500 PC, and when you try to boot it, it's DOA,... Was it DOA or did you kill it the moment you took the new mobo out of the bag by being careless? You just wasted all that time and money for no good reason.
On the Nano since there are two grounds and only one five-volt connection can you put three devices on to the five-volt pin? I am using two Capacitive Soil Moisture sensors along with a i2c controlling a 16,2 display. I first used an Uno to test and then I moved the circuit to the Nano. I have the Nano on the board with the headers and screw connectors. Since switching everything over and double-checking my connectors I am now having an issue with one sensor reporting false readings even with the sensor completely disconnected. Just wondering if I have too much on the nano, doesn't seem like it should be the issue but I'm still new to these things.
Pro Mini Pins are close match if not the same as the Nano so you can plug them direct in to the nano prototype boards or nano shield, i have use the pro mini a lot as they are very cheap when i was in china i got about 50 for less then 0.20 USD each
Sir, what do you think about 8266 boards in terms of reliability as oppose to Arduino In automotive applications which one of does can take more vibration and shock, Thanks for your lovely videos you teach very well
that was a great video, from Iraq, I wanted to say thank you sir, and i really appreciate your effort, liked and subscribed, please keep doing more videos.
Thank you for this nice overview of the different microcontrollers. I have noticed another Pro Micro, and I think it is a Pro Mini with on board USB. How would you rate it against the Arduino Nano?

I can also help in getting you started with the free Arduino simulator until then, take care bye
For bigger projects is the ESP32 CH340 not a better choice due to the greater memory and WiFi connection? Am I right that it can be extended for more pins?
This is wonderful! However - I'm trying to find your video on programming/using the ATTINY85 Can anyone tell me the title of that video so can find it? Sincere thanks!!
Great video as always. You never did post the follow up video you mentioned about the ATmega328 & ATtiny85 chips, those would be super interesting. thanks again!
Sir,is it possible to extract code from the mega ic microcontroller? For instance,if particular microcontroller ic IO is faulty there is need for its replacement with new one and the original code must be transferred to the new mcrocontroler.
Hi. Im a beginner. I have a mega , and a 16 channel servo motor shield from adafruit. I want to know if I can use about 10 servos, a few led lights, a couple of dc motors and a prerecorded sound with a speaker all on a mega? Can I do it on an uno? Not all would run at the same time. I want to program to have a servo or 2 to move for amount of time then other 2 or so servo to run for an amount of time and less and servo to run for an amount of time and so on. Servos, dc motors, led and maybe a proximity sensor. Can this be done with a mega or uno? Do you have a class where multiple things are on a mega or uno? Thank you!
Thanks for the compliment regarding the workshop, it's a "labor of love" so I'm pretty proud of it. Before I built it I had never drywalled or framed in my life, after building it I feel like I could build a while house! I will definitely do a walk-thru video soon as many have asked for it.
Sir, If I will build LED Wall with 1,200 pieces of WS2811 RGB strings, what type of arduino I will going to use to control the animation of Led with the use of glediator software?
Brilliant video (as usual) which explains things in a very clear way. However, I am now starting a campaign to make our American friends pronounce the "L" in "soldering"!!! ;-)
The best laid plans... It was my full intention, and still is, to continue making more videos on the subject. However just after making this video we had a family emergency that required my undivided attention and kept me from making more videos for many months. I've just got back to making them again and will indeed make more videos on the different members of the Arduino family, as each model has it's own unique characteristics and I want to illustrate that. As for the playlists once I have enough videos in my own catalog I'll update them to include them.
Looking forward to your future videos. Recently discovered your channel and very impressed with the quality. It's obvious a lot of work goes in to each video. Many thanks for your efforts.
