Breakout Board For My AVR

Now with my ISP device, I need a breakout board for my AVR processor. A breadboard works well from time to time but something more permanent is needed. So looking through my inventory on hand I found a protoboard that would work well.



The first thing I started with was the positioning of the processor and sockets for Port Pins. Then I moved on to adding IC sockets for EEPROM, a Real Time Clock, and a D/A Converter. After that I soldered on two pin terminals for easy interfacing to the chip's onboard A/D Convert Channels. The last things I have added are a LCD contrast pot and a system reset button. Now to wire everything up so the breakout board actually works.
