I’m a long time desktop developer who’s just dipping into embedded development and want to put together some ideas I’ve had for a while. I know what hardware I need and it’s available from GHI but I’m wondering what do I put it all together on?
Will I need some sort of breadboard to attach the electronics too? If so, what does everyone suggest? Also, what about power? I’m probably going to use some sort of battery for power. Is there a power module I need to buy?
Depends on what are planning to do. For small projects the power provided on the board is enough. It is always good to have a couple of breadboards. What hardware did you decided on?
Thanks for the quick reply, Architect! So the hardware I’m going to use is pretty simple:
FEZ Cerebrus Mainboard
USB Client DP Module
Camera Module
SD Card Module
Accelerometer Module
GPS Module
Cellular Radio
I know that seems like a lot of hardware (maybe?) but that’s what I need. I guess my main questions are pretty much the same. Obviously, I need to power all this stuff and I need to mount it. Any suggestions?
