Greetings! Just a quick note that Solarbotics is closed this Monday October 9th for Canadian Thanksgiving. Sorry if this is an inconvenience for you, but this turkey has made an appointment with us that we just can't miss! We'll be back to business as usual on Tuesday. See you then!
Arduino Duemilanove, USB Cable

May 13, 2009
WHAT'S ALL THIS, WHAT'S ALL THIS?! Step in Time! That's right - we're following up our special edition Evening News Post with a special edition Mid-Week News Post. We gotta keep you folks on your toes somehow.
Actually, the real reason we're coming to you on this dusty Wednesday afternoon is that we have a pretty nifty announcement. We're now official distributors of Arduino! Wooooo! While our good ol' sister site HVW Tech will be carrying most of the new toys, we're going to make sure at least a few of the fun things make it over this way. Don't believe us? Here you go, we just received a shipment of the new USB boards, the Arduino Duemilanove (or as I like to call it, the Arduino Da-hooey-hooey-hooey). It's actually pronounced something along the lines of 'Do-ay-mill-ah-noh-vah'. But don't quote me on that. Anyways, onto the juicy details:
Microcontroller: ATmega168
Operating Voltage: 5V
Input Voltage (recommended): 7-12V
Input Voltage (limits): 6-20V
Digital I/O Pins: 14 (of which 6 provide PWM output)
Analog Input Pins: 6
DC Current per I/O Pin: 40 mA
DC Current for 3.3V Pin: 50 mA
Flash Memory: 16 KB (ATmega168) or 32 KB (ATmega328) of which 2 KB used by bootloader
SRAM: 1 KB (ATmega168) or 2 KB (ATmega328)
EEPROM: 512 bytes (ATmega168) or 1 KB (ATmega328)
Clock Speed: 16 MHz
"Chris! You MORON!", you scream at your computer screen, "This stupendous device is rather useless without some way of connecting to it!"
And you would be absolutely right. That's why we've just made available a trusty 6-foot USB A to B cable for all your USB A to B connection needs. See? We got you covered.

Welcome to the new Solarbotics Website! You'll notice some substantial upgrades. We're on our own server, which means very quick and speedy surfing. The website is also totally re-written from scratch. This is a double-edge sword, as this means we're still working on re-porting over older documents, like the BEP applications. Look! A search button! […]
Sumovore Line-follower
This link is a bit on the old side, but if you are thinking of entering the WCRG event next month, here's last year's champion's (Craig Limber) webpage about turning his Sumovore into an almost-as-good line follower! It's a good way to get into this rapidly-growing event...
New GM11-14 mounting screws
BOY those are strange little screws on the face of the GM11-14 series of gear motors! 1.7mm diameter x 0.35mm thread pitch ain't a common bolt, but we found some 4mm long that we've made available for those of you looking for a precision method of mounting the motors. Check out part M1.7x0.35!
