Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Nice one, CG.

This will allow MicroMite users to use the plethora of Arduino Sheilds on the market.

@ muddy0409 - There won't be any video outputs. If you want video or VGA, there are sheilds that can do that for you.

Thanks Grogster!

Muddy: For video output and shield compatibility how about the CGCOLORMAX2 Maximite?

CG - sorry if I missed it; are you selling PCBs and/or kits of this unit too?

Finished units, WW. One of the parts is a QFN. A bit difficult for most people to hand solder.

OK, thanks for the confirmation. I will order one but not at the moment if thats ok with you! I do not want to get distracted from the TerMite project I am working so hard to complete. Also my funds are totally taken with components at the moment so will be about another 5 weeks before able to release 'spare' funds.

Let me know if you are close to selling out though as I definitely don't want to miss out on one of these excellent boards!

Here's a pic of a breadboard setup for this Micromite. It uses Sparkfun's development board (DEV-11235) and companion breadboard (PRT-12002).

@CircuitGizmos

Really neat !

When the '470 uMite is available, your board will be a really, really competitive product, and if there was an STM32 uMite some day, then even more powerful !!
