What You'll Need
Ideally you should have a Beagle board before you begin reading this book so that you can follow along with the numerous examples in the text. If you do not yet have a board, it would be worth reading Chapter 1 before placing an order. Currently the board is manufactured by both CircuitCo and Embest—the boards from either manufacturer are compatible with the designs and operations in this book. You can purchase one of the boards in the United States from online stores such as Adafruit Industries, Digi-Key, Mouser, SparkFun, and Jameco Electronics. They are available internationally from stores such as Farnell, Radionics, Watterott, and Tigal.
A full list of recommended and optional accessories for the Beagle platform is provided in Chapter 1. In addition, each chapter contains a list of the electronics components and modules required if you want to follow along with the text. The book website provides details about where these components can be acquired...
