Skymega board

thingiverse

The Skymega is an ATmega microcontroller-based, Arduino-compatible electronic board designed for creating modular robots or mini mobile robots. Developed by Juan Gonzalez-Gomez (Obijuan), Andrés Prieto-Moreno, Itziar Lima, and Ricardo Gómez, it's open source hardware created with Kicad, hence dubbed "open source squared." This compact board boasts ease of student assembly, an ON/OFF switch, compatibility with up to eight servos via a connection, I2C bus, a test button, and two test LEDs. It's currently being employed at Universidad Carlos III de Madrid for Miniskybot, Repy1 1.1 modules, F-track, and Orugator projects. For more information on Skymega (including repository links, images, and instructions), visit iearobotics.com/wiki/index.php?title=SkyMega. The board can be manufactured using the provided Gerber files or edited with Kicad. The bill of materials is listed in skymega-BOM-en.pdf, and programming requires Arduino environment connectivity via a modified FTDI cable (instructions available on site). Happy building and coding with open source printbots!
