Atmel has introduced an upgraded Xplained Mini development kit at Embedded World 2014 in Nuremberg, Germany. The versatile board offers both devs and Makers extensive examples and a flexible approach to help accelerate the design process.
“The Xplained Mini board supports low pin-count devices, includes an on-board debugger, along with example software projects,” an Atmel engineering rep told Bits & Pieces. “The new board is automatically detected by Atmel Studio and is extremely flexible with a large prototyping area for access to all MCU signals and an optional Arduino connector for extensibility.”
The board – which is based on Atmel’s 8-bit Mega168 device – will be available at the end of April via the official Atmel Store.
