Pinguino


pinguino4

Pinguino is an Arduino-like board based on a PIC Microcontroller. The goal of this imagine is to build an integrated IDE manageable to use on LINUX, WINDOWS and MAC OS X. Arduino is a awful figure with some defaults. One of its inconveniences are a no native USB interface on the chip and its constitution count .

The IDE of Pinguino is built with Python. An integrated preprocessor translates specific Arduino recipe directly into C. This preprocessor reduces the constitution count and the execution beat. Pinguino hardware is based on a 18F2550. This chip has an integrated native USB module and an UART for serial dovetail.
