PTSolns

Did you know the PTSolns Leonardo+ is the ultimate "middleman" microcontroller bridge for your hardware projects?

The Leonardo isn't just a microcontroller; it's a native USB device! Because it supports the USB HID (Human Interface Device) protocol, it can send keystrokes, mouse movements, and gamepad commands straight to your PC.

Want to cut the cord? Combine the Leonardo with our fully compatible PTSolns NRF-Shield to add NRF wireless communication to your system. The PTSolns Leonardo+ acts as the perfect hardware translator, taking radio frequency (RF) wireless signals from the shield and turning them into real-time PC inputs.

What wireless hardware would you connect to your PC using a PTSolns Leonardo+ and an NRF-Shield? Let us know in the comments! 👇

User Project Highlight

***
This week's DIY electronics project highlight showcases a custom light chasing LED display, a brilliant build we first spotted at the Calgary Maker Faire this past weekend (May 2-3)!

The maker engineered an impressive free form soldered LED structure, completely driven by a custom-built control circuit. To bring this hardware project to life, the components and wiring were expertly integrated using the PTSolns Proto-Half V2.2 prototyping board; the perfect compact PCB for building and testing custom microcontroller circuits!

Build your next embedded systems project with us. Find our prototyping boards and hardware in 180+ countries on DigiKey: PTSolns.com/DigiKey

Access datasheets, pinouts, and supporting documentation on our technical repository: docs.PTSolns.com

Inspired for tinkering!

We are happy to announce that PTSolns is an official sponsor of the Calgary Maker Faire 2026 event! Come check out our booth on May 2nd and 3rd.
