Toy Projects
- blink an LED (see the associated wisp "hello world" project)
- turn an LED on and off with one switch
- boolean logic — take two input lines, and put some combination of them on the output: and, or, xor, nand, nor, etc.
- when a switch is pressed, turn an LED on, then after some time period, turn back off
- fade an LED from bright to dim and back, over and over (eg. PWM)
- have the chip send "hello world" via RS232 to the computer, over and over (see an implementation here)
- have the chip wait for data to be sent via RS232, and echo back letters increased by one (eg. sending "hal" will get back "ibm")
- drive a piezo output (eg. like this)
- drive a stepper motor
