I'm looking for a programmer to help me out immediately. The application is -- very briefly -- a sensor with a serial ADC input and a switching output, the switching points are selected by a communication interface (RS-232). Some calibration and configuration values have to be stored in EEPROM; if the code space is enough, the 16LF84 with internal EEPROM is ok, if not, we would have to go with the 16C558 and an external serial EEPROM (I'd like to stay with a 18pin device). The hardware and the basic communication with the external devices is already working, and I have a pretty detailed flowchart of what the program should do (except for the communication interface; for this I have a detailed description). But I need somebody to program it and maybe strip it down until it fits :-) I would supply a prototype hardware. I estimate ~3 weeks for the stuff (just to give you an idea about the time frame), and I want a fixed price contract. Of course I will provide more detailed information to the ones I will ask for a quote. As I need it quite urgently, whoever wants to do it should be more or less in the area (USA -- sorry, I really would like to do business with an Aussie someday, I like the accent, but know it only from TV :-), be available (almost) immediately, and be willing to come here (Ohio) for final debugging and integration -- if there are problems. If you're interested, please send me a private message (off piclist) to my email address ( mailto:gerhard@pobox.com ), with some info about yourself (resume) and your work (code sample). This is the first development I do in this company, and we will do more along these lines in the near future. So this might be the beginning of a longer lasting business relationship. weber Sensors is originally a German company, manufacturing industrial flow, proximity and optical sensors, mainly. We are now expanding in the US, after having had a sales bureau here with some small scale manufacturing only, and transferring some parts of the company over to here (e.g. development).
