maby a arduino usb board for monk?
maverick monk:
ok, i was looking for parts for my main board yesterday, and i found this
http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/product_info.php?products_id=666
Arduino USB Board
now, it says it has problems with an external psu, dose that meen like a wall supply? can i still use batteries and not have to swap resistors?
i see it has female pins instead of the studlier male veriety, should i get male header pins and solder those onto my sensors?
im going to guess that the output from my analog ir/sonar will go in a analog in ( im certain pf that) but do i then stick all of my ground wires into that one ground terminal?
how will i wire my dual h bridge in?
im looking at this because its cheaper then getting all the parts to put together the homebuilt circut. i also dont trust my soldering skills too well yet.
please answer soon, if my friend gives me the 20 he owes me ill get this tomorow
edit, what plugs into the 6 pins at the top of the board... sensors? im looking at all the information i can but this is all so new to me, ive learned alot already but this electronics stuff is like its own language

Your most likely going to need to make something called a "sheild" for the Arduino. It is pref board that you put male headers into so it fits on top of the Arduino. From there you can do all the soldering on that pref board and it will connect directly to the Arduino board. Look at mine, I used the L298 H-Bridge for mine. Also check out my instructable, I talk about it a little bit there http://web.instructables.com/id/EXDGV5CF36FEUOP/

In case you want to know, for that Usb board (it doesn't tell you for some reason)
The measurements are as follows:
Length: 2.7"
Width: 2.1"
Height: 0.5"

There's loads of tutorials on the arduino site, yo.
That's probably the best thing about the arduino infact.

And it does/has almost EVERYTHING
