Microcontroller Computer Systems Kit

Inner workings of computers are revealed through 100 engineering experiments. This kit contains all the components you need to build your own microcontroller, the "brains" of a computer.

First, assemble a circuit and write a program, following the detailed instructions in the manual. Then, upload the program to the microcontroller using an infrared interface. The program tells the microcontroller how to perform your experiment and store the data. Finally, the data stored in the microcontroller can be downloaded to the computer using the infrared interface.

The 100-page, full-color experiment manual guides your circuit assemblies and programming. Conduct experiments with light, heat and sound sensors by writing your own programs and building the circuits. You can also use the device to collect data for other experiments.

Includes carrying case. Software System Requirements: Windows 98, 2000, XP. 64 MB RAM. 5MB free hard drive space. Requires one 9-Volt Battery (not included) or a standard Power Adapter (not included).
