Introduction: Eduino Eduardo

Eduino Eduardo is an improved DIY Arduino UNO R3 compatible development board. I have designed it to teach children soldering, electronics and programming.

If you want to know more about my work: There is an arcticle from our local newspaper

Features


USB B connector

Power supply socket, 6-12 V input voltage

Switching of the supply voltage via two Texas Instruments power-distribution switches (TPS2041 / TPS2051)

Current limitation for both supply voltages (USB / VIn)

Overcurrent indicator via two red LEDs

PIC 16F1455 as USB microcontroller with official sublicense of USB VID/PID (0x04D8/0xF015) from Microchip

Reverse polarity protection up to 30V for VIn

Compatible with Arduino Uno R3

Step 14: Solder LED4 and LED5: LED 3mm Red

Check polarity !

The long leg has to be positioned on the left side (+ sign on the board )

Step 15: Solder LED1 and LED2: LED 3mm Yellow

Check polarity !

The long leg has to be positioned on the left side (+ sign on the board )

Step 16: Solder LED3: LED 3mm Green

Check polarity !

The long leg has to be positioned on the left side (+ sign on the board )

Step 17: Solder D3: Diode 1N4148

Check polarity !

The black marking has to be positioned on the left side

Step 27: Short Circuit Check

Check the bottom side for possible soldering short circuits

Step 28: Power Supply Check

Connect the board with a PC or a USB charger via a USB-B cable.

The green LED should light up now.

Step 29: Short Circuit Test

Connect GND and +5V with a jumper wire cable

Then connect the board with a PC or a USB charger via a USB-B cable. The red LED on top should light up now (Overcurrent indicator)

Step 30: Mount PIC 16F1455

Check orientation !

The IC has to be mounted carefully, with the notch in the IC matching the notch in the socket.

Step 31: Mount ATMEGA328P-PU

Check orientation !

The IC has to be mounted carefully, with the notch in the IC matching the notch in the socket.
