Testing The GertBoard

I was in Berlin, Germany this week to attend the Qt Developer Days conference Europe where I gave a talk on Qt and Raspberry Pi. I'll be giving the same talk at Qt Developer Days North America in Santa Clara, California from December 5 to 7, 2012.

Now that I am back home the the GertBoard has been assembled and is confirmed to be working.

I ran the included programs that exercise the pushbuttons, LEDs, open collectot drivers, PWM motor controller, A/D converter, and D/A converter.

 Next up is to try the Arduino compatible microcontroller. I hope to make some videos of some programs running and post them on YouTube.
