DIY Arduino - Make Your Own Arduino Board

Arduino Uno is a new discovery of electronics, this board will help you to do your school and college projects easily. Buying an Arduino Uno is costly. No problem you can build your own Arduino board at home easily. so in this article, I’m going share the idea of DIY Arduino board.

The Arduino Uno is an AVR microcontroller which contains a memory in it. by using a laptop or computer we can program the ic. Then we can use as per our convenience.

The Arduino board consist of ATMEGA 328 P microcontroller. which will provide you the free access to reading and writing of the codes.

We can’t use make Arduino programming directly. We need another original Arduino Uno board. So buy a new Arduino board first time for programming all the ic.

This process is known as bootloader installations on atmega 328 ic.

This homemade Arduino board consists of bootloader circuit and external power supply section also. If you are planning to do a project with Arduino but you don’t need most of the output pins. Then you can do the project with the ic also.

Takes the ic or burn a bootloader on another ic. Then use this ic for a new project. I buyed an Arduino board about 5-6 dollar. But this board is taken for a project. But I want to start a new project what I didn’t?

Buying Arduino Uno board in several times is wast of money. We can make our own Arduino Uno board from that old Arduino Uno board. So follow these steps and also check the circuit to get better ideas.

Homemade Arduino Uno board

First, you need an Arduino Uno board ( for programming another Arduino Uno board)
Connect all the component as per the diagram.
Then turn on the Arduino Uno board and click on the Arduino software icon and upload the bootloader file to it. ( led get blink in the new board)
After completing take the ic and place on the original Arduino Uno board.
Upload the project core.
Then replace it into the new board.
That’s it the homemade Arduino Uno board is ready.
