About us

We provide low cost microcontroller development systems for students, hobbyists, engineers or anyone wanting to prototype projects while keeping cost under control.

We carry embedded systems prototyping boards products for many microcontroller families.

In our opinion, anyone with a basic understanding of electronics, some programming knowledge and dedication can learn the art of programming microcontrollers.

We know that it is sometimes difficult to get access to equipment and microcontroller development systems can be very expensive. We think that you will like our website as we provide a low-cost alternative to development kits sold by major microcontroller companies, yet retain most of the features and benefits.

Our objective is to help you get started. For this we found that Olimex development products offer a really great value for the money and we have used their products in many projects. We also provide engineering students or more experienced hobbyists with boards running faster and more resourceful ARMĀ® processors and Ethernet controllers for projects requiring networking or robotic control.

We also created our online store to help Canadian customers get a better price on development kits. As Canadian distributors of Olimex products, we can help you save on customs brokerage fees and international shipping by ordering from us. We can also ship to the USA or international destinations.
