Arduino Simon Project Board

I teach Arduino at the library where I volunteer. I had my intermediate class recreate the classic Simon game. They wired up the buttons, LEDs, and a buzzer on a breadboard to prove out the code. While the class is suspended during the 2020 health crisis, I decided to make a PCB of the circuit using an Arduino Nano to reduce the size. It is powered by the Nano's USB and a new game begins when you reset the Nano.

The boards worked out well and the game plays as expected. This is the Nano Simon code the students created. The cost for the Nanos, parts, boards and shipping was $75 for 10 boards or $7.50 each. You can see the public domain schematics and board info on the EasyEDA project page.
