Rugged Circuits Arduino

Many components on the arduino will be destroyed and this voltage can also appear on your computer s usb.
Rugged circuits arduino. The videos show the little things that go into the the thought process and design of our products to make big differences in performance and reliability. Apply a voltage of 6v or higher to the 5v connector pin. There is no current limit protection on the vin connector pin. Rugged circuits is us based.
How not to destroy an arduino. The arduino blocking diode will be destroyed and traces on the arduino pcb may melt and be destroyed. They manufacture and sell an arduino uno derivative board called the ruggeduino. All of the material in this video is based on a really great article written by a company named rugged circuits.
The rugged mega is a ruggedized arduino compatible microcontroller board. Inspired by our 10 ways to destroy an arduino these videos provide an in depth look at just how easy it is to damage a standard arduino and how we have thoughtfully created a superior solution. Rugged mega with ethernet et extended temperature. Tested extracore boards and kits are now available for sale from rugged circuits.
This instructable will give you all the files and information you need to make your own arduino compatible in small surface mount package. Only 2 left in stock. A short circuit from vin to gnd effectively short circuits the dc power jack input and exceeds the current rating of the blocking diode.
