Subject: Re: Atmega?

I posted this off list, but I'm reposting on the list with mnor edits.  I
think there might be people looking to buy stuff.  If so here are some links

The real Arduinos are made in Italy, not China.  Nothing wrong with the
lower priced clones BUT you need to understand what you are getting and the
differences.   If you just want to  "load and go" and not have to make
changes for pin-numbers, different resistor values and other little things
then by the real product.  If you don't have the cash, buy a clone that
claims to be an "Uno" (Italian for one) and you need the ATmega328P chip.


I am a huge fan of the "teensy3" from PJRC.com. $19 for a faster, lower power version of the Arduino on what looks like a wide DIP28 kind of carrier. Works with the Arduino IDE or with separate tools.

Has better ADCs, better timers, etc. and 50 MHz instead of 16 or whatever the Arduino is.

A lot of the Arduino libraries are from Paul Stoffregen, who's the teensy designer/seller.
