So i’m pretty keen on making and distributing some protoboards for the SparkCore.
I’ve got plans for three sizes a tiny one no wider than the core. A medium one just a bit bigger than the core and a larger one with more space.
I’ve started with the medium one. Its only a little larger than the core. The pins either side of the core are linked to the cores pins. This makes it easy to use the proto area inside the core for building up small circuits as well as having a row on the outside of the core making it easy to hook up external components. There are extra rows of linked holes for Vin, Gnd and 3.3 Volts. There are also mounting holes.
I’ve just received my first prototype and i’m happy with them, just got to fix up the silkscreen to show the links between the core and the adjacent pins.
The plan is to have a batch of these made up and sell them on tindie hopefully fairly soon.
I’ve used heaps of Arduino protoboard’s in the past to build up various projects and i’ve been missing having some small protoboard’s for the SparkCore.
Suggsestions welcomed.
