The boards folder contains custom board configuration files for the Universal Infrared Blaster (UIRB) project. These files provide PlatformIO with the necessary details about the hardware specifications of the UIRB board.
uirb-v02-atmega328p.json:- Custom board definition for the UIRB V0.2 hardware, which is based on the ATmega328P microcontroller.
- Includes details like:
- MCU type
- Clock frequency
- Memory layout
- Upload protocol and speed
- Enables seamless integration with PlatformIO's build and debugging tools.
Custom board configuration files in PlatformIO allow developers to define hardware settings for boards that are not natively supported by the platform. These files:
- Simplify project setup by encapsulating hardware details.
- Provide consistent and reusable configurations for similar projects.
- This folder can be expanded to include additional board definitions if new hardware variants are introduced.
- Ensure that the JSON file matches the actual hardware configuration of the UIRB board to avoid build or runtime issues.
