Move Up to the 32-Bit Micro Experimenter Board
Now that you know how the Rabbit RCM5450W module works and how to interface relays and an LCD, it’s time to set up your sprinkler system.
This self-contained, battery-powered unit measures both DC current and voltage. It accepts four of the most common wall wart plugs and also has four identical output plugs — ready to hook to your project.
It’s here! We’re graduating from our 16-bit Experimenter so we can experience a whole new level of applications with the 32-bit version.
With an understanding of IR codes, a wide range of devices can be built that offer new remote control capabilities.
