ROBOT.HEAD to TOE Product User’s Manual - MAKER-UNO-PLUS 1. INTRODUCTION We bring you the Maker UNO Plus, an Arduino UNO compatible board designed and developed specially for students to learn coding and microcontroller. We named it Maker UNO Plus to encourage everyone to be a maker by getting started with this amazing board. By the way, it is in PURPLE! 3 years ago, we re-engineered Arduino UNO and introduce CT-UNO.
ROBOT.HEAD to TOE Product User’s Manual - MAKER-UNO-PLUS Not to forget the change of ATmega16U2 chip to FTDI IC, the low cost yet stable USB to UART IC. Maker-UNO combines the simplicity of the UNO Optiboot bootloader (which load program faster), the stability of the FTDI and the R3 shield compatibility of the latest Arduino UNO R3. Of course, we preserve the good feature of CT-UNO, the USB Micro B socket for program loading and to power the board.

ROBOT.HEAD to TOE Product User’s Manual - MAKER-UNO-PLUS Maker UNO does not have Vin. J K L M MAIN MICROCONTROLLER (ATMEGA328P) Main controller for Maker Uno is ATmega328P, same as Arduino Uno R3. SERIES OF MOSFET These series of MOSFET is a ‘secret’ why you can control LED or make it as indicator for input, even for pull-up input. SERIES OF LED FOR DIGITAL I/O Every digital IO is equipped with LED, where you can control it or make it as indicator for input.
ROBOT.HEAD to TOE Product User’s Manual - MAKER-UNO-PLUS 5. HARDWARE INSTALLATION 5.1 Maker UNO Plus Power Supply Main power for Maker UNO Plus is through USB connection. If you would like to make your Maker UNO Plus portable, you can use power bank or Cytron LiPo Power Shield. NOTE It is advisable to have 1 power source only at 1 time.
ROBOT.HEAD to TOE Product User’s Manual - MAKER-UNO-PLUS 5.2 Using Arduino Uno Shield Since Maker UNO Plus doesn’t have Vin, any Arduino shield that require Vin is not compatible. However, if the shield have option to choose power source (either Vin or external voltage), it can be used with Maker Uno (by using external voltage). For example: ● Cytron 3A Motor Driver Shield ● Cytron G15 Shield ● Cytron 10A Motor Driver Shield ● Etc… The rest, it is fully compatible with Maker Uno.
ROBOT.HEAD to TOE Product User’s Manual - MAKER-UNO-PLUS 7. EXTRA FEATURES Maker UNO Plus incorporates 3 extra features which make it interesting and more suitable for beginner. Below are the detailed descriptions for each feature. 7.1 LEDs at Every Digital Pins Each digital pins (pin 2 - 13) is equipped with LEDs. Those LED can be controlled as an output or can be act as an input (signal monitoring).
