By default all Wulfden Dorkboards kits now come with the 28 pin ATmega328P.
To take best advantage of the ADABootloader we ship in all of our chips, you will want to
download the latest complete ADABoot package, about 110 KB,
which has the proper additions to boards.txt for ADABoot168/328P/644P. It also has a complete set of
bootloaders and core software for Freeduino systems with ADABoot. This file last updated on

DorkBoard Kit Don Davis of Portland OR designed this board as the center piece
of his awesome series of presentations, "Cult of Arduino Induction" at
DorkBotPDX. The DorkBoard is about as minimalist as
you can get and still be on a PCB. This is the ideal carrier board with the reset and resonator in place plus bypass and filtering
caps
There is no programming adapter on board.If you have an RS232 serial port available (either legacy or USB-RS232) the
P4 RS232-TTL adapter, also offered below. The nice part of this arrangement is that the programming adapter is a one time buy and
can be re-used on other boards as opposed to Arduino(tm) boards with USB on every board!
- There are assembly instructions
for the DorkBoard available.
- You are going to need to download the Arduino software, which
is a complete Integrated Development Environment (IDE) written in Java and available for Windows, Mac, and Linux.
- Note - the Digital Pin 13 LED is wired opposite to how Arduino/Freeduino does it. The LED is pulled up to Vcc, thus a logic LOW is neede
to light the LED;
- Arduino -- digitalWrite(13, HIGH) to turn LED ON
- DorkBoard -- digitalWrite(13, LOW) to turn LED ON
It's no big deal, but you need to keep it in mind if you want the LED "usually off", for example
when blinking Morse code. You'll need to tweak some Arduino examples to get them working with the Dorkboard.
