Hey Birt! | Arduino TIL311 Tester @HeyBirt | Uploaded November 2019 | Updated October 2024, 6 hours ago.
Description

In this video, we take a look at how to use an Arduino as a component tester. In this case, we are testing some vintage TIL311 hexadecimal LED displays. Using the Arduino makes this a quick and easy way to test several displays. We also take a brief look at the Visual Micro plug-in for Visual Studio that provides an excellent development environment and debugger for Arduino projects. Links are below.

This quick project is a good Segway into a couple of upcoming videos on an open-source project I’m developing which uses an Arduino as a component tester. Stay tuned…
