Among my other projects today was to take one of the new SX48 Proto boards and rig it up to go on my spare BOEBOT.  I took 18 pins worth of .100 single line sockets an set them for RE, RD, RTCC and MCLR. 16 pins worth for RC and RB and an 8 pin for RC. I set a line of 7 pins worth of single line header for the  servo GNDs and the Servo +V Vdd/Vin selector and a two row 4 pin header for the 4 +V and data lines on the servo. Then a 4 pin socket for the Servo data pins as well. I plan to buy one of the small breadboards hat parallax uses on the BOE and glue it down inside the 'fence' made by the pins I put in place.

I then took some simple BS2 code from Robotics 2.2 and brought it over and fed it into the SX/B, hooked up the servos and 'voila' it worked. It took a little extra figuring to get the PULSOUT numbers right but it came alon after awhile.  The SX48 at 50 MHz really cooks along and may make for some very interesting robotics projects.

I will take some pix and post them in a day or so.

Thanks Parallax for an absolutely great product. These boards are gonna sell a lot of SX48's I will bet!

cheers ... brian riley, n1bq, underhill center, vermont
