provide key elements for understanding electronics design and theory. In fact, we make it our
goal to produce kits that will apply important electronic principles using analog and digital
technology, and easy to find off-the-shelf components.
Our Programmable series of kits incorporate microcontroller technology due to the simplicity of
the electronics and ease of assembly. It allows for a greater range of functionality, while
maintaining a cost effective solution for some of today's more challenging electronics needs
and requirements.
The Singing Santa uses a simple algorithm to access selected patterns in its internal ROM and
sequences these patterns into the LEDs and speaker. Each pattern uses 8 bytes for each step
of the unique pattern. If you are interested in learning more about the program feel free to
