Take a deep dive into the hardware of the chipKIT Uno32 in this #ThrowbackThursday post that features a March 2012 article from our friends at Nuts & Volts Magazine. Fred Eady, the author, talks about the Arduino hardware model, describing it as "a perfect example of a universal electronic cluster design." Eady discusses the serial USB interface in depth, and also examines and explains the schematics for powering the chipKIT Uno32 board. Finally, he ends with a deep dive into the Basic I/O Shield, the code libraries

The tutorial we're sharing today shows you how to take temperature readings via chipKIT uC32 (or Uno32) and the Basic I/O Shield, and send this information to Raspberry Pi, where the sky is the limit with the things you can do. In this particular example, you can display the temperature readings in the GUI via a Python script.

Thanks to Jay at Digilent, the chipKIT WF32 now has an awesome and very useful pin diagram. Note that this diagram is no match for the WF32 Reference Manual; however, used in combination, these two files make getting to know your WF32 board a snap! In addition, two other documentation-type resources that provide even more details about your board include the board definition file and the schematic for each board. Check out [Digilent's
