Digispark Pro – tiny, Arduino ready, mobile and usb dev board
- 7952 13y agoIt is not clear what they mean by "Mobile Development Ready". Does that mean I can use it with a 3G radio? If so how?
- phorese 13y agoFrom the Kickstarter page: > With Bluetooth Classic, BLE, and Wi-Fi shields and examples for Android and iPhone - and USB Serial (built-in) connectivity for Android (devices with USB OTG supporting Serial devices) .
- makomk 13y agoInteresting. They appear to be using a software USB-serial implementation on an ATtiny; last time I checked that didn't work on some OSes because CDC serial on a USB low-speed device violated the USB spec.
- pmorici 13y agoIt's sort of surprising to me how many of these kinds of things there are out there that are apparently successful. I guess the key is that they make it accessible to a wider audience by making it Arduino compatible so you don't need to be a full on EE to make use of it like you might if you bought a raw Atmel AVR chip off digi-key or something like that.
- artificialidiot 13y agoNot that you need to be an EE when the devices are integrated this much and vendors provide reference implementations but it is worth the money to get a decently built PCB quickly instead of doing it yourself.
- artificialidiot 13y agoFunny how those wireless "shields" have 10x performance of the AVRs on the main board.
