What Are Your Most Popular Dev Kits or Reference Design Kits?

rscasny

I was asked this question the other day. What Are Your Most Popular Dev Kits or Reference Design Kits? On impulse, I would venture to say the Raspberry Pi, Beaglebone. I'm sure there are others. Sensor kits, FPGA kits, Motor Contr0ol kits, Power kits, come to mind, but I'm not sure which ones element14 would consider "popular."

So, I figured I would ask you.  What are your most popular kits?  If you have the time, please leave a comment below. 

Thanks

  • I tend to like development kits that relate to parts that I might want to use in my current or future designs.  The kits that I have gotten the greatest value from were some of the Atmel (now MicroChip) 'Xplained' boards/kits. I used a few of these boards to prototype some of the products that I have produced.  They assess to each pin on the processor and allow you an easy way to interfaces chips to the processor.

    I have purchased several of these boards, utilizing different processors from the ATtiny and Atmega families.
