Hello Everyone, Wirz Electronics has a new product that we would like to introduce to everyone. The Serial LCD Interface (SLI) is a self contained display unit with TTL and RS232 compatible asynchronous serial inputs. The unit is designed to allow the engineer, technician, or hobbyist to integrate it into a circuit with a minimum of interfacing requirements. Jumperless control and automatic detection of data rates eliminates difficult interfaces and complex controlling code. Low cost and line-powering features make it suitable for use in commercial products. With both alphanumeric and hexadecimal display mode, SLI is a powerful debugging and display tool for many applications. Features: Jumperless Control/Operation Wide Baud Range, 30 to 125,000 bps RS232 and TTL Compatible RS232 Serial Powered * Auto-Baud Rate Detection ASCII and Hex Display Mode D Sub 9 Female Connector (DB-9) and IDC Connector Allows direct control of the LCD functions and features Designed for all 8x1 to 40x2 character HD44780 controlled LCDs with 14x1 pin connectors Suggested Retail Price for a complete SLI Kit: $25.00 (US) Suggested Retail Price for a complete SLI Kit and 16x2 LCD: $30.00 (US) More information can be found at: http://wirz.com/sli/ An Adobe Acrobat SLI Technical Reference is available at: ftp://wirz.com/Serial_LCD/sli.pdf Distributors: Australia DonTronics PO Box 595, Tullamarine 3043 Tel: +613 9338-6286 Fax: +613 9338-2935 http://www.labyrinth.net.au/~donmck/ South Africa Interface Products (Pty) Ltd.
