Finally, a PROFESSIONAL explanation, with a professional quality video, audio, and shop! Many RUclips videos turn people off with crappy quality in every aspect, but _you_ restore hope in RUclips professionalism.
Hi Bill, I was re-watching this video ( as I often do with yours as they are exactly what I need ) and I saw your comment about having 50,000 subscribers in 2018. Then I noticed your current number is 555,000. And very well deserved. All the best from the England/Scotland border, Pete
FAKE! No shops in the real world are that neat and clean. Obviously a green screen hoax. Just kidding . . . really wish I could keep things that organized. This was a great video with valuable content and superb production quality. Great work!
@@Sidowse. Yep, so I order some more and get told off. It’s even worse when resistor arrays get put in with things like a picaxe cos they are black plastic things with little legs poking out the bottom.
As a non native speaker of your language, I appreciate your clear and perfectly understandable language. And the interesting themes of course, too!! Greetings from Switzerland.
Please let me that. My IC is working on arduino but not working on breadboard. Everything is all right. Showing issue with Tx and Rx . Why? Please guide me
It's pretty good but he's no triple camera guy. :) Edit: memification aside. The production quality on this video is absolutely top notch. Very well done.
A refreshing and welcome change from all those super hip RUclipsrs that think it's so cool to have a secondary shot they're not actually addressing, aka, the crapshot. (Techmoan made a video about this but sadly took it down.)
As I've learned recently, there is also a way to program your MC using an Arduino board with flat chip that can't be removed. All you need to do is 1. upload "ArduinoISP" sketch (included in Arduino Studio examples) to Arduino board, thus turning it into an ISP programmer 2. Connect following 6 pins of your recipient MC (check pinout in the datasheet) to corresponding pins of your programmer (Arduino board, note that you might want/need to change the output pins in the "ArduinoISP" sketch code): MOSI, MISO, RESET, SCK, VCC, GND 3. Select "Programmer: Arduino as ISP" in Arduino Studio or similar option in IDE of your choice (I've done it with custom upload protocol in PlatformIO) 4. Upload your sketch as usual. The video is still very informative, it clarifies the options to burn the firmware into the MC pretty well.
Just arrived on your channel. I am a newbie at Arduino (not electronics). I really like the way you teach: very slow and calm, good video, good examples and schematics. Despite the fact that I am french It's a true pleasure to listen at you. Congratulations !
Your videos are great I am new to electronics and find you explain every thing so well, keep them coming. Forgot to tell you I'm 85 years young never to late to start.
I built some of these a few years back, as projects, I was just inventorying my chip collection this afternoon and discovered I had several brand new 328's in one tray, as well as some old atmega 8's. Nice review on how to use them again.
For anyone showing up here later. He states that any ATMEGA328PU you find will normally have the bootloader and that's why it has the P or PU designator. That is not correct. The P means it's the low power version of the chip and the U means it is in the DIP package with the through-hole pins like you see on an Arduino UNO. Chips that come with the bootloader preinstalled will state that it has it specifically otherwise they will not. Otherwise these are really pretty good videos and someone starting out can learn a lot from this guy!
I'm working on my thesis for my grade degree and want to do a robot like thing with arduino and oh man you have helped me so much with many of your videos! I love how you explain everything so smoothly and in a way that even complete begginers will probably be able to follow. Keep it up man! Thanks for the hard work, you just got yourself a new subscriber!
Please let me that. My IC is working on arduino but not working on breadboard. Everything is all right. Showing issue with Tx and Rx . Why? Please guide me
Great vid with genuinely useful content. Nice to see a presenter who speaks at a normal, relaxed pace and not targetting 1000 words per minute. Great job. Thanks.
I am a retired electrical eng, and I always been excited to still work on electronic project and DSP algorithms, robotics and vintage radio restorations. I discovered your channel lately and I can say that I am amazed to see how clear are your explanations and how clean are your animates sketches bouncing around.....I am greatful for all your time and effort you take to share your vast experiences, you are a great source of inspirations for many electronics state of the art projects.....Michel ( Québec, Canada)
Awesome Bill, you've done it again to impress me! I've been working recently in the AtMega328, and many of my questions are answered in this video. May the force be with you too Bill. Can't wait for your next video!
Please let me that. My IC is working on arduino but not working on breadboard. Everything is all right. Showing issue with Tx and Rx . Why? Please guide me
Bill, I have read some of the comments on several of your video presentations and I want to encourage you to not change a thing in your presentations. They are just excellent- if the critics know so much about how to improve on excellence, they should make their own videos. You are one of the few video teachers who are both understandable and can actually teach something without confusing silly personal comments, meaningless explanations, and irrelevant side information- Oh, and without distracting long pauses, and 'errrs" and 'ummms' and "You knows" and endless redundancies and repetitions. And God bless you for not including irritating canned, loud "music"- as the official XOD tutorials do!!! Thanks again- JB
Bill, this was a great video! Thank you for sharing. You answered a big question about how to use the ATmega328P as a free standing chip in my project. You are my hero!
Criticism but its positive... many N-T people will not have the patience with your delivery. I am A-N-T so i find it almost comforting. Precise and covers everything without rushing and very well illustrated. So, my criticism is about others, and not actually you. Keep up the great work, and i love the 2 camera angles!
Thankyou for taking the time to explain in such detail and making the effort to demonstrate. You have inspired me to explore and learn an entirely new frontier and I'm approaching 54 yrs of age. I am continuoisly amazed at how much the arduino has in common with many of todays appliances and industrial controls. Please keep doing what you do here. I hope you can feel the appreciation from those who follow your channel.
I just wrote an e-mail and in the Background started this Video and i immediately recognized you. Such a calm Style of teaching i Love it. Not to mention the actual contect :D great as always
Nice presentation with very clear, to the point dialogue and professional visuals. Just a few observations: switching between cameras serves no purpose and instead becomes a gimmick that detracts from your message. Choose one camera and stick with it unless you are showing your workbench/hands. Find a longer focal length lens and set up the camera farther away to minimize distortion. Finally, move the camera down to the height of your nose to make you look your correct height. Thanks.
Sorry, I have to disagree with you, Dave, and pulsejet. I suffered through a 1 hour MOOC class where the camera never changed. Boooring. Watch any movie or TV show, starting counting when a scene changes, you will rarely get to 20. Why is this done? Several reasons: to keep retakes to a minimum, less script for the actor to memorize, and, of course, to keep the audience from getting bored. I would edit a few of the head turnings out though; otherwise, this guy is one of the best on YT.
Sir, you are best..... you are the one what 21st century embedded system beginners want you as mentor. You are hero for us..... thank you so much sir...
You really connect all the dots - plenty of detail AND the material on the web site. I haven't yet decided whether to program my project in C or directly in assembly, the latter provided better control and efficiency - especially when using a complex interrupt structure. Thanks for the wonderful videos - its been 20 years since I was designing uC systems - and the videos are an easy way to 'get my head back into tje game' so to speak.
Great Video !!! Another good reason to go for the ATmega328 (or any other ATmega chip solution) is that you are not allowed to use an Arduino for commercial projects if you are not willing to release the source code. That said, you are allowed to use the Chip solution in commercial products, like an R2D2 Robot, if Lucasfilm gave you permission to make one.
To use the surface mount type uno to program a bare atmega328....On the surface mount uno...you can run its reset to ground on the uno board. Run tx and rx lines like you did. From board to atmega328 to be programmed. Then when you upload the code you'll have to manually reset the atmega 328 you're programming manually once by touching its reset pin to ground briefly. Basically this method is isolating the ftdi usb to serial on the uno board by keeping the onboard 328 in a constant state of reset. Great video!
Very valuable info. I am just going to start experimenting with Arduino but I was already thinking on how to shrink the project once it works, and here it is, not just how to shrink it but also how to simplify it.
Your videos are so organized and very informative. If I have the chance to watch your videos when I was a student. I will be a greate hardware engineer.
When he said "If you have a local electronics store". OMG I miss my long lost neighborhood Radio Shack store. The one from my childhood in the 1960's with all the parts and kits.
NO JOKE. I am only coming up 20 years old soon, but I remember when I first started to get into hardware, radioshack was... beautifully exciting to me, and I have distinct memories of walking down the aisles and being fascinated by all these plastic boxes with resistors, IC's, wacky sensors, and all that. Going into highschool, the radioshack closed down, and all I had left was this awesome massive breadboard with lots of controls, some kind of starter kit. It had frequency knobs, voltage controls. Unfortunately I lost it, but i'm really smacking myself on the wrist for not getting bigger into it before radioshack went down, because my days are now visiting Amazon, and other websites. I really miss not having the opportunity to go into a local electronics store and browse components, or talk to someone about projects... local 'electronics' stores nowadays are just shitty phone cases and "phone repair" with some third-hand computer parts, and old accessories :(... Nothing close to me can line up with what Radio Shack offered, and I can't find any alternatives near me... maybe i'm looking in the wrong places?
Never let viewer down. Great quality video, help understand in deep, nice voice and explanation. RUclips need this channel. Next video Shrinking your Esp32 Projects please ?
First of all I wish to thank you a lot Sir...for making this awesome video... I was watching your videos since last 4 years... Your videos are really helpful and gives me detailed knowledge about arduino and other mcu s ... Thank you Sir.
A very informative and practical hands-on video, delivered in a calm and confident tone (unlike some other videos I have seen by others). I will definitely continue to follow this channel! Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us.
The most informative channel for electronics ever! I always search out your channel videos whenever I want to understand each part and detail from the beginning! Keep it Up, Sir!👍
Great video. A small remark: the leds shown at 7:27 have their internals mirrored. The larger structure inside the LED is in reality connected to the cathode (the short leg).
Dear Bill, Excellent explanation with the iron patience that is explained. I will post my issues about the programming on your forum. One subject missing in the end , How the FTDI module connected to the PC and how programmed with Arduino IDE.
For some reason the double camera action reminds me of the Seinfeld library investigator 🤣 maybe its just me though. Really, this is a fantastic video, so much incredible info put in here in a compact and understandable format. REALLY appreciate it!! 🙏
Hello Sir, Your presentation is superb. Easy to follow but nicely detailed. I have been using these chips for sometime now but still enjoy watching others experimenting. Looking forward to watching many more. Cheers from Australia. P.S. I now also have workshop envy LOL :)
although i have no immediate plans to do this, I found your video very informative and well done. You obviously put tons of work into these videos and I thank you
Great video. I have been thinking about just using the microcontroller to not have to take out the uno for every new project and this has really told me everything i need to know. It was very helpful. It could be a bit more concise though, but it was definitely still worth my time.
Sir you are such a great person, the whole thing is great, the explanation, The animation, your flow, simply everything is great and i am very happy to know your channel ❤
The capacitors required for the crystal depend on the load capacitance specified for the crystal, typically 20pf, that requires 36pf capacitors. The formula is load capacitance minus the stray capacitance ( typically 3 or 4 pf ) and double it. For a 20pf crystal this works out at 36pf capacitors. For the crystal shown in the video the load capacitance must be 22 divided by 2 is 11, minus stray capacitance of 3pf = 8pf.
It is the other way around, here is an example: C1, C2 = 2*CL - 2*Cstray CL = (C1+ 2*Cstray)/2 = C1/2+ Cstray C1 = C2 = 22pf, Cstray = 7pf CL = 22/2+ 7 = 18pF
I find your videos very clear and concise, as well as very informative. This one is especially interesting as i am doing some permanent projects and it would be a waste to use an Uno for each one. Thank you very much. Love your presentations, always very professionally done..
your videos are very informative. i am doing electrical engineering and your projects help me a lot learning new things. althought your channel is still in beginning but i hope you make video more often in future.
Fantastic demonstration and very informative and helpfull. Some simple ideas that really help! I have now a project where the ATmega328 is build in, and for software updates I now made a module (in which the Arduino UNO is build without the chip), with on one side the USB connection to the computer for programming, and on the other side a 4 wire connection that I can plug in my PCB of my project where the ATmega328 is situated. I skipped the +5V feeding from that module, as my product has his own power, and can even, when running live, be updated if software is again downloaded!! Exelent use of many items in this video! Thanks a lot.Highly appreciate this.
Bill, Thank you very much for this awesome Video. These answered lot of questions which was frying my brain. Just need to do it myself. I'm confident I should be able to do it
I applaud your a video. VERY usable project, and highly educational for even more seasoned electronics hobbyists whose understanding of microcontrollers may not be so strong! You’ve so clearly run through that source code, I feel so confident that I am learning even though I’m not so aware of just what it is I am learning. It’s an exercise in knowledge of the physical connections of those components on the microcontroller and their corresponding declarations in the code. Absolutely flawless run through with that source code by the way! Hey, you’re really good at making this sort of video, THANKS A LOT!!
Hi, thanks for your excellent video. I have, what maybe be a dumb question, but here goes... I playing around with a project for my allotment and the Nano seems to draw around 100mA making me think I'll need a massive battery (maybe a 12v car unit) for it to last long enough to work. I thought about stripping the components down to only use the ATmega328, but it seems there is no point based on your video as it appears the power consumption will be the same. Is this right? Many thanks, Connor
I should have looked here first. Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you. Since I have a FTDI already, I will just skip to the last method. Also, I hate pulling big chips out of sockets, I will probably build a programming rig with a ZIF socket just to avoid the hassle of getting the ATMega on and off of the breadboard. Alternatively, I may use an HC05 Bluetooth module and a wireless connection to the computer.
His workbench is dream of every nerds / hobbyist.
Sorry I'm Late too clean :)
Clearly his favourite colour is blue.
The integrated power supply taps on the bench. No luxury has been left out. Ah I need to do that so badly
It makes me anxious... I do not why because I do want my own bench too look like this than the " throw in two hand grenades and shut the door" it is today.

Hello Sir, Your presentation is superb. Easy to follow but nicely detailed. I have been using these chips for sometime now but still enjoy watching others experimenting. Looking forward to watching many more. Cheers from Australia. P.S. I now also have workshop envy LOL :)
After 25 years I'll pick up electronics again. Thanks for the inspiration!
Thank you for everything you do. It is appreciated.
although i have no immediate plans to do this, I found your video very informative and well done. You obviously put tons of work into these videos and I thank you
Came to learn how to downsize to a chip.... got a music lesson....well done!!
Great video. I have been thinking about just using the microcontroller to not have to take out the uno for every new project and this has really told me everything i need to know. It was very helpful. It could be a bit more concise though, but it was definitely still worth my time.
This is channel is amazing, one of the best out there!
Sir you are such a great person, the whole thing is great, the explanation, The animation, your flow, simply everything is great and i am very happy to know your channel ❤

Nice set of tutorials. Thanks for presenting the information in a very beginner friendly way.
Just came across this channel. Instant subscription! Nice authentic quality content!
I recently started learning basic electronics and circuitry. Just wanted to say: This video is insanely educational and helpful. Thank you!
Don't start learning Arduino first, learn the actual electronics like chips 555 timers capacitors resistors.
U r always my favourite teacher sir 💐💐💐
The. Best. Electronics. Channel. Ever.
Echoing what everyone else has said; thank you for putting these videos together and sharing your wealth of knowledge with strangers.
I don't understand why u haven't gain subs yet, you gebiuenly creates quality content. Man keep it up, taught me a lot, thanks,
Watched just a little more than a minute and already subscribed! Love this dude!
2 years later...
Informative information...
You should have a school/college to teach these things...
Thanks Sir.
The capacitors required for the crystal depend on the load capacitance specified for the crystal, typically 20pf, that requires 36pf capacitors. The formula is load capacitance minus the stray capacitance ( typically 3 or 4 pf ) and double it. For a 20pf crystal this works out at 36pf capacitors. For the crystal shown in the video the load capacitance must be 22 divided by 2 is 11, minus stray capacitance of 3pf = 8pf.
It is the other way around, here is an example:
C1, C2 = 2*CL - 2*Cstray
CL = (C1+ 2*Cstray)/2 = C1/2+ Cstray
C1 = C2 = 22pf, Cstray = 7pf
CL = 22/2+ 7 = 18pF
I find your videos very clear and concise, as well as very informative. This one is especially interesting as i am doing some permanent projects and it would be a waste to use an Uno for each one. Thank you very much. Love your presentations, always very professionally done..
that camera work though. mindblown!
Thanks for your amazing channel, these types of videos were dream of my childhood.❤
What an Excellent Tutorial, As a " Newbie " to programming the Arduino Ive learned alot ... Just Subscribed .. Thankyou
your videos are very informative.
i am doing electrical engineering and your projects help me a lot learning new things.
althought your channel is still in beginning but i hope you make video more often in future.
OK, I will like this video now. I never think that it is easy until I watched your video. Thank you!
Fantastic demonstration and very informative and helpfull. Some simple ideas that really help! I have now a project where the ATmega328 is build in, and for software updates I now made a module (in which the Arduino UNO is build without the chip), with on one side the USB connection to the computer for programming, and on the other side a 4 wire connection that I can plug in my PCB of my project where the ATmega328 is situated. I skipped the +5V feeding from that module, as my product has his own power, and can even, when running live, be updated if software is again downloaded!! Exelent use of many items in this video! Thanks a lot.Highly appreciate this.
My shop is super organized but you got me beat with that peg board and organizer!!!
I looked at his workshop, layout etc. and started to drool at bit!
Exactly what i was searching for... GREATLY EPLAINED!, THANK YOU SO MUCH!
@DroneBot Workshop can you please tell me how to power it?
Bill, Thank you very much for this awesome Video. These answered lot of questions which was frying my brain. Just need to do it myself. I'm confident I should be able to do it
What a way to teach us all. Explanation was simple , orderly and to the point.
I applaud your a video. VERY usable project, and highly educational for even more seasoned electronics hobbyists whose understanding of microcontrollers may not be so strong! You’ve so clearly run through that source code, I feel so confident that I am learning even though I’m not so aware of just what it is I am learning. It’s an exercise in knowledge of the physical connections of those components on the microcontroller and their corresponding declarations in the code. Absolutely flawless run through with that source code by the way! Hey, you’re really good at making this sort of video, THANKS A LOT!!
Hi, thanks for your excellent video. I have, what maybe be a dumb question, but here goes... I playing around with a project for my allotment and the Nano seems to draw around 100mA making me think I'll need a massive battery (maybe a 12v car unit) for it to last long enough to work. I thought about stripping the components down to only use the ATmega328, but it seems there is no point based on your video as it appears the power consumption will be the same. Is this right? Many thanks, Connor
I love these little projects, they’re so well put together.
I should have looked here first. Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you. Since I have a FTDI already, I will just skip to the last method. Also, I hate pulling big chips out of sockets, I will probably build a programming rig with a ZIF socket just to avoid the hassle of getting the ATMega on and off of the breadboard. Alternatively, I may use an HC05 Bluetooth module and a wireless connection to the computer.
A catchy tune. Really enjoyed this tutorial. This will help on some projects coming up.
Thanks for such a clear and thorough tutorial! This answered what I was questioning and more.
