Thanks for all you’re votes, you’ve decided the future of this blog
. So from now one i will try to add as many personal projects as i have time & money to build and also i will continue adding project from around the web.
Thanks again for your support.
Today my parts order arrived, i got a little from everything
. Some of the parts were ordered from DigiKey and were very nicely wrapped and others were ordered from local suppliers. There will be many projects posted on the Personal Projects page, so check the site regularly.
Here is a picture with most of the parts on the table

As you can use i got 10 5×7 LED matrix’s which i will use in some LED Display projects.
I also got an AVR Butterfly because I’m going trough a AVR Programming Book. By the way i didn’t knew so far that the AVR Butterfly is the cheapest development board on the market(taking to consideration all of its features).

And here is a picture of my stash. I took me a full day to arrange all the parts. Ofcourse i took my time and enjoyed doing it.


The handy Butterfly GPS is a cost-effective system that presents location, date, and time data on its LCD. The system features an ATmega169 and a highly sensitive GPS receiver engine board based on the SiRF chipset. Its amazing what you can do with such a low cost development board.

The goal was to design a home made LED Display that can be expanded to bigger sizes with minimal costs. Unlike other systems, on this one the image gets scanned mechanically and the image is created by using the POV effect (persistence of vision). There are 32 RGB LED used in the project but you can easily increase the number of LED’s. The author attached the system to a spinning fan, and the images started to appear.

A master-controller board and three stepper motor driver boards drive this well-designed PCB drill machine. There are four single-sided boards each featuring an ATmega16/32 microcontroller. The master controller initiates and controls all communication. The result ? you drill your PCB’s precisely at the right spot.
