Maker Uno

C1235

Elmwood Electronics has stopped accepting orders. This product might be available at PiShop.ca. Please check this blog post about our recent team merger.

Maker UNO is an Arduino Compatible board specially designed to simplify building your projects:

  • Coding & Electronics made easy with built-in components: 12x LEDs; 1x buzzer; 1x button
  • Troubleshooting made easy with LED indicators.

 

 

Students/Makers can skip the hassle of constructing basic electronic circuits. Although it is important to learn about basic electronics, that come later, after they have experienced how easy it is to create awesome projects. Start with the fun and excitement! Start coding right away, and see your board light up and play sound with the press of a button!

For experienced makers, this is also useful. You can quickly test your code without having to connect any other devices.

 

 

With the conventional Arduino boards, makers also face another common problem - difficulty in troubleshooting their circuit. This is because when it doesn't work, you don't know whether the problem is due to wire connection or coding.

 

 

With Maker UNO, the problem is solved! Not only do the onboard LEDs work as outputs, they can also act as indicators, clearly showing what's happening on that pin. When the pin is used as input, you can clearly see whether a signal is received by just looking at changes on the LEDs. 

 


 

Additional Features

 

One of the brilliant features of the official Arduino Uno is the label printed on its pin headers. It saves us a lot of time when we want to connect the I/O pins to the external circuit. So, we include a set of these label stickers for pin headers in each of the Maker UNO! (Please note that you need to peel off the stickers and stick them on your Maker UNO by yourself)

 

 

Students always get their boards mixed up. With Maker UNO, you can write your name on the board. Problem solved!

 

Maker UNO uses the common Micro USB cable which is basically everywhere.

 

 

Don't throw your box away! There is a small opening on the box for you to plug the USB cable so that you can keep your Maker UNO safely in the original box, no additional casing required.

 

 

Specification

 

Maker UNO is fully compatible with Arduino. You can share the same library and code. We put in 12x LEDs, 1x piezo buzzer and 1x programmable button on the Maker UNO. We have removed the DC jack power input socket as most of the boards used in classes are powered using USB. We have also replaced the ATmega16u2 with CH340 to bring down the cost.

 

Every piece of Maker UNO is fully tested with this test jig before it is being packed and ship to user:)

Feature Projects

 

Here we introduce some simple but fun projects that can be easily built using only Maker UNO. We share the source codes so that you can try them at home.
