A breadboard Arduino stripped right down to its bare essentials. Actually stripped down a bit too far - I've been a bit naughty with the LED.

    Hey Julian i have a question Running the arduino at that low Mhz doesn't make it also low Power in current as well?

  2. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars David Kitcher-Jones says:

    Brilliant. This video was just what I needed to use an otherwise defunct chinese arduino nano clone (faulty CH340 chip was never functional)

  3. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Mr Dhaliwal says:

    what setup you use to record videos ?

  4. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars JS7457 says:

    You could use ProgISP instead of arduino.

  5. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Søren Reinke says:

    Excellent video!

    If anyone wants to do a minimalist blink without reducing life of LED, connect LED to pwm output and adjust pwm until LED current around 20ma, blinking basically same.

    void(loop);
    {
    analogWrite(0,63); //or whatever number gives you around 20ma, turn LED on.
    delay(1000);
    analogWrite(0,0); // Turn LED off.
    delay(1000);
    }

    Can the 8MHz 'Arduino Bare' run the small LCD display as you did in the other video $5 dollar 1 day project Arduino on a breadboard (or whatever it was called)?

    And if so, why bother with the Crystal at all?

  8. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Andy Crofts says:

    Yep, I wouldn't NOT use a series resistor with a 4,5v battery. Two red LEDs in series, maybe… A JFET, wired as a constant-current diode – now there's a thought….

    Hehe, nice cheating 😉

    But @6.52 I think you mean to say "Here are all my Sketches" instead of libraries. Libraries should go in [documents]\Arduino\libraries 🙂

    Are u ussing 6 volt whitout problems?

  11. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars alphahr says:

    I have been an avid PIC programmer for 15 years and that's what we do in assembly

  12. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Volthaus Lab says:

    Of course the 3.3v Pro-Mini Arduino running at 8MHz will do well at minimizing energy consumption yes?

  13. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars David A Stanton says:

    had you ever thought about using OBS for your screen capture instead of your camera? it's a free program that many twitch steamers use. would make that part of your videos easier on the eye!

  14. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Intel 1 says:

    That's great, I'll give that a try!
    Thanks from Toronto!

    Is there any limitations by doing this or is the chip able to carry out all the functions as before
