BW16-Stamp has been designed for a while, now it's time to see it in action, let's watch a demo video
In this demo, you will notice there are a few interesting new features added,
1. Auto Flash Enabled
With the community contribution from jojoling, and some simple circuitry on the breadboard, you can now auto-flash the BW16-Stamp with a single click of button( with Arduino IDE). This is very handy feature, as in the pursuit of a minimalist design, adding components like buttons and etc is gonna make the stamp much bigger and also more complex( you have to recall the button pressing sequence to get it into UART downlaod mode), thus adding this feature will make programming BW16-Stamp a no brainer.
2. The side-mounted battery connector
The side-mounted battery connector makes the entire profile much cleaner and thinner, which means higher possibilities to embed a project made from BW16-Stamp into small enclosure or 3D printed case
3. The 2.54 Pitch Castellated Holes
These holes work really well with breadboard, even for a temperory fixing with male pin headers. This also enable it to work with other breadboard-friendly compponents such as the Neopixel LED shown in the video, soldering the LED onto the stamp is truly a bliss.
