Make your own Arduino Board- DIY instructions for Beginners (part 2)

When you get your Arduino control panel, you first thing you need to do is to install the driver on your computer so that you can experiment with it. All kinds of practical operations and experiments should base on this. This will require you download the Arduino IDE to your computer (the IDE is Arduino's software development environment, whether Mac, Windows, or Linux). If you can not find the download address, you can comment below and I will offer you some guidance. Then, you need to purchase some Expansion Boards online, for rc drone controller, you might need the bluetooth module and the GPS module, for example.

Steps to prepare an Arduino Board:

1. Socket attachment

The first step would fix the socket seeing that it is fixed to the notch of the perf board. You can drill and create a larger notch on the board. You could also get an Amplifier Board or ICD Controller board. The Bluetooth power amplifier board is suitable for all small bluetooth speakers. The lcd controller board is compatible with Notebook, host computer, monitor, VGA, host DVI, Xbox/PS3/PS4, raspberry pie signal interface and so on.

2. Add a 5V and 3.3V Regulators

By holding the 7805 printed side down fix the 5 V and 3.3 V regulators using the decoupling capacitors. The 3.3V do not have the same pins as in 7805; hence make sure to keep the print sides towards you.

3. Indicator LED

Connect the LED to the output of 7805 regulators to indicate the power. Connect the anode to 150-ohm resistor and connect the resistor to the output of 7805. Plug in and make sure everything is fine.

4. Connect the power and ground pins

Connect the pins 7, 20 and of 5 volts; 8 and 22 to ground.

5. Reset Button

Take a pin to connect to 10k and then to 5v continuously connecting to the bush button to pin 1 along with other to ground.

6. Add on crystal oscillator

Connect 16 MHz oscillators to pins 9 and 10. After this connect the 22cp to pin 9 with other ends to ground. Repeat with pin 10.

7. LED on Pin 13

Connect red to pin 19 and cathode to 150-ohm resistor.

8. Female Headers

Label them all to avoid confusion and connect them to respective pins and make sure to be tedious.

9. Other headers

Connect the 6 male headers opposite to the power jack as given.

10. Use an Arduino Uno to program

You just need to prier the chip to Arduino board while off and you can replace the chip.
