I don't have an Arduino UNO, but I have a sparkfun nRF52840 Mini Breakbout, which is compatible with the arduino ecosystem. Besides the pins being different is there anything I'll be missing or do you think I can follow along with that?
You will probably able to follow all videos. However, I do reference the AVR at some points in the upcoming video and may look at how it's down on the bare metal. Also, you will need to translate all circuits and code (not only from the pin but maybe also from the electrical levels) to the nRF52840 on demand.
@@LötwigFusel Yes, I think the nRF52840 board doesn't follow the AVR core. Hopefully it's not too big a deal. I was also thinking of maybe getting an UNO clone board from ebay, an original is just too pricey for me. As for adjusting electrical levels, I suppose that will somewhat be explained to the point where I could deduct the corresponding ones using the docs for my board? Btw, where did you learn about embedded systems & electrical engineering?
I would recommend that (I’m also not using an original one). The UNO uses 5V levels and your board probably 3.3V. I have learned electronics with an Arduino uno. Also I have a Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering.
Thank you!
