TotemDuino Micro Lab is a breadboarding and testing unit. A perfect platform for learning electronics and programming for a beginner or a hobbyist user. A laboratory built on a sturdy Totem mechanical structure and based on an open-source Arduino platform.
This is a perfect tool for a beginner or a hobbyist user. Micro Lab contains the TotemDuino board, which is an improved version of the Arduino UNO, with 100% software compatibility.
What’s in the box
Building instructions - suggested use of Totem parts for building a workbench where everything neatly mounts together
TotemDuino board - Totem's improved version of the Arduino UNO
Breadboard CYB-60 - the experimentation area
Standard USB 2.0 Mini Cable - A-male to mini-male
Collection of Totem construction parts - for building Totem workbench
Totem magnetic screwdriver with strong magnetic grip - bolt firmly stays on screwdriver even when shaking it
Main features
Wide power supply range - from 5 to 30 VDC
TotemDuino board - Totem's improved version of the Arduino UNO with 32kB flash memory
Powerful voltage regulator - up to 1.5A at 5V
Compatible with Totem MiniLab Side Panel extension boards as an expansion
Micro Lab frame
No more messy electronics: Micro Lab is organized on a 3-dimensional frame; it is easy to see, wire and to reach all elements
It is easy to upgrade: add extra mechanics or electronics
Micro Lab includes all mechanical elements needed for assembly of the frame: Totem Beams are already cut and ready to use. Totem Magnetic Screwdriver is included
Move your Micro Lab safely without any wires losing connection or mishaps
TotemDuino
TotemDuino expands upon the great Arduino UNO platform idea. While it is kept fully backwards compatible with Arduino, a lot of additional features are included as well:
Output protection - all of its output pins going into LabBoard are protected against over-voltage or short-circuit conditions
Expansion port - a 34-pin flat-cable connection connects to the LabBoard for easy pin access
Powerful 5V regulator - you will be less likely to run out of power while experimenting with higher power loads
Selectable microcontroller logic voltage - TotemDuino can work with both 5V and 3.3V logic voltage just by the flip of a switch
Expand Micro Lab with Side Panels
Totem Micro Lab can be used with Side Panels - they give you access to various pre-built sensors, drivers, buttons and relays. Side Panels attach directly to the Micro Lab structure and simple breadboard wires are used for connections.
