"The Bluebird Electronics millenium board starter kit contains all the necessary components to start learning the intricacies of the PIC and is aimed at both engineers and students" It contains the following features: regulator and reset components, choice of 4 or 8 MHz oscillator module to drive the PIC, prototyping block for project expansion, sockets for 40, 28 (narrow), 18 and 8 pin PIC's. Alphanumeric LCD display module (16 characters x 2 line) with seperate back-light control, 4 seven segment LED displays, 6 undedicated LEDs. 3 x 4 keypad for data input, dual RS232 ports, thermistor, potentiometer, 4 switches, 4 push buttons. Prototyping breadboard area. Connectors are provided for an internal ACSPO programmer for in-situ programming. The board is fully assembled and a circuit diagram is provided together with a 3.5" disk with examples of source codefor both CCs-Q compliler and assembler for projects based on the board. Examples of applications include LED flashers, LEd to LCD display driving, keyboard interfacing, A/D routines, RS232 interfacing and many more. Each project is supplied with rellevant wiring information and is fully commented to assist the userin following the program. NOTE The user will need a programmer such as the PICSTART Plus to develop the software and program a PIC micro. All-in-all a very powerfull learning / development tool. This board has never been used. It was bought with a project in mind and then something else came along - hence it is up for sale now. List price in the UK is #112 - I'm asking #65 for it, buyer pays postage/shipping costs. Cheque in pounds sterling as payment, items ships when funds cleared.
