Are These The Same?
« on: March 22, 2011, 06:45:34 AM »
So I just got in my parts for the $50 Robot from Digikey and ServoCity.  But it turns out that I forgot to order the Atmega8 microcontroller from Digikey.  Because of shipping costs and all that, I have decided to order this part along with the parts for another electronics project I have on queue.  But the parts list for this other project are for Jameco, not Digikey, and I don't yet have the technical understanding to decipher the data sheets and make comparisons (otherwise I wouldn't be doing these projects).

This is the part I need from DigiKey:

This one from Jameco looks very similar:

Are they the same?

EDIT:
Or maybe this is the right one?

The two might be different im not sure. The one from Digikey is the correct one to purchase for the $50 robot. Someone else might know more about the other one. They look to be the same though in specs. It could be the same one with on slight difference and thats why the manufacture numbers are not the same. Good luck on your project though. Sorry i cant help you any further.
