Dawn Robotics<\/a>, mostly known (as the name implies) for their robotics kits and parts, have released a new board called the Pi Co-op. Here’s what they say about it:<\/p>\n

The Pi Co-op is an Arduino compatible microcontroller expansion board for the Raspberry Pi. The Pi Co-op makes it much easier to hook up electronics to the Raspberry Pi than using the GPIO pins directly, and provides a powerful programmable microcontroller that can take care of your low level hardware whilst the Pi focuses on the higher level computation. The Pi Co-op brings the worlds of the Raspberry Pi and the Arduino together, and means that you don’t have to make the false choice between an Arduino or a Pi for your next project. Use the best bits of both!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It has an onboard ATMega328p chip which has been programmed with the Arduino Uno bootloader (so it’s easily programmed from the Pi) and includes a 10-bit 8-channel analog-to-digital converter. All the inputs and outputs are broken out to headers. They’ve written a handy manual for the board and also created a script to set it up with the Pi. The price is very attractive – it’s available for \u00a316.99 (inc VAT) with a \u00a32 shipping charge if your total order comes in at less than \u00a350.<\/p>\n

It looks like a great board – very compact and neat and a great way to get into Arduino programming. In fact, it could be the most cost-effective way I’ve seen to bring the Arduino and Pi together.<\/p>\n
