BASIC Stamp Projects By Amanda Ogryzek

A list of BASIC Stamp projects by Amanda Ogryzek a UCSI Student

I have being working with my BASIC Stamp Homework board and have listed the videos of my BASIC Stamp projects to date. I like using the BASIC Stamp homework board because it is a solderless breadboard I can create small projects on, and then turn around and pull everything off the board, and do another project on the same board. It is a very practical tool for learning circuits, electronics, and microcontroller programming. I went through the book ‘What is a microcontroller’.

What I learned from the BASIC Stamp (Click the links below to watch video of it)
