Totem Micro Lab construction kit - TotemMaker TKM-MCL1

A set of elements allowing you to create your own laboratory set based on TotemDuino module equipped with ATMega328P microcontrollerusingArduino IDE environment. The platform allows you to learn the attitudes of electronics, programming and conducting experiments, while reducing the discomfort of problems with installation, delicate connections and disorderly wires. Rigid construction and the ability to avoid most of the inconveniences resulting from the use of the contact plate significantly increases the comfort of using the set.

The module is based onATmega328P microcontrollersimilarly toArduino Uno, thanks to which the set allows to learn programming inArduino IDEenvironment. Pins located on the board are equipped with overvoltage and short-circuit protection,which greatly facilitates the prototyping processand protects the main circuit from damage in case of bad cable connection. The boardworks with a logical voltage of 3.3 V and 5 V, the selection of the logical level is made with a slider switch.

TotemDuino module with ATmega328 microcontroller.

The manufacturer offers side panels that extend the capabilities of the main set, there are 3 panels that play different roles depending on the equipment:

• Audio panel- containing an amplifier with a loudspeaker, LED control indicator and a function generator.
• I/O panel- containing additional switches, potentiometers, relay and 3.5 mm jack connector.
