Overview
The Nanocon board is useful for
embedded control and robotics projects for
both students and hobbyists.
The Nanocon’s versatile design and
programmable microcontroller allows you
to control different external devices and
program the board for multiple uses. The
board has many I/O connectors, power
supply options, and supports a number of
programming tools including ATMEL AVR
®
STUDIO 4, and WinAVR.
The Nanocon has a number of connections
for peripheral devices. Digilent peripheral
modules (Pmods™) include H-bridges,
analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog
converters, a speaker, switches, buttons,
LEDs, RS232 converters, screw terminal
connectors, BNC connectors, servo
motors, and more. For more information

.
Features include:
• ATmega168 microcontroller
• four 6-pin connectors for Digilent
Pmod peripheral module boards
• four LEDs
• ESD protection for all I/O pins
• in-system programming support
using the Digilent parallel JTAG
cable or the Digilent USB JTAG/SPI
cable.
