SODAQ Mbili: Platform files for Arduino to run on ATmega1284P

What is it?

Everything you need to run Arduino on SODAQ Mbili. This is a second generation board from SODAQ. The CPU is a ATmege1284P and the board inherites most of the features that made SODAQ Moja a success.

Current state

Everything is there and has been tested. It should work fine.

The platform is based on the optiboot bootloader. Notice that we are using our own version of optiboot. See https://github.com/SodaqMoja/optiboot.git

Installation

1. Download the ZIP File
2. Unzip it in a folder called 'hardware' off your sketches directory, e.g. /home/kees/sketchbook/hardware/ The ZIP file already unpacks in a subdirectory called 'sodaq-mbili'.
3. Restart the IDE !
4. Select Tools > Board > SODAQ Mbili
5. To burn the bootloader, follow the Arduino Bootloader instructions.

Requirements

• Works only on Arduino >= 1.5.x (tested with 1.5.8)
• There is a GIT branch arduno-1.0.x with the files for Arduino 1.0.x

Supported Boards

• 'SODAQ Mbili 1284p 16MHz using Optiboot at 57600 baud'
