1. AVR Board:

1. The AVR Board contains:
2. One ATMega16 microcontroller.
3. One MAX232 for serial com port communication.
4. One Serial Port Microcontroller Programmer.
5. One Motor Driver to drive:
• Two DC Motor in both direction, or
• 4 DC motors in single direction.
6. One LCD display.
7. One 4 way DIP Switch.
8. 4 Push-to-On Switchs.
9. 4 LEDs.
10. One Serial Cable
11. One USB Cable

Every thing is configurable through connectors and can be connected to any port pin. All the port pins are available on connectors to connect to external circuits. The Board can be powered by USB through computer or a battery or eliminator (selectable through a jumper).

2. Sensor Modules

Two Sensor modules are given. Sensor modules are customizable for TSOP, IR, Photodiode, LDR. i.e. any of these sensors can be directly plugged in on these boards and used.

Sensor modules works on two modes. Selectable through a jumper:

1.    Analog Mode: Gives analog voltage from the sensor (through a buffer) to the ADC ports of the controller

2.    Digital Mode: Gives digital value from sensor after comparison with the voltage you set through a preset.

The following sensors will be provided:

• TSOP [IR Sensor]                           - 1 Nos
• LDR                                             - 1 Nos
• Photo Diode                                   - 2 Nos
• Super Bright LED                             - 2 Nos
• IR LED                                           - 2 Nos
