|How to measure, control and limit current  || || |Paul Maidment| [[User:bradwood| Bradley Wood]]|| This is quite a big area:  from basic resistor usage, to transistors, mosfets, relays, triacs, etc. Might be worth splitting out into sub-sections. -- [[User:Bradwood|Bradwood]] ([[User talk:Bradwood|talk]])

|Low-level ATMEGA overview || [[User:Mentar|Mentar]] (not expert, just using it for the robot arm) || [[User:bradwood| Bradley Wood]]|| Timer0, 1, etc. Interrupt Pins, and writing ISRs, Hardware overview and onboard capabilities (i2c, spi, pwm, etc, etc). Interesting registers, how you might manipulate them, and why. Basically -- a synopsis of the ATMEGA328P data sheet in a nice digestable format.
