Hello All,

Some of you may recall the following thread on the development of a new SX48 based DIP module that is pin compatible with the BS2p40 stamp:

These are available now and I know at least a few folks on this forum have had excellent results using this kit as an introduction to surface mount parts.   To get these out in the hands of others I am offering them on sale for the month of June (or until I run out).  For $29.95 (plus shipping) you get the full deluxe kit with all the parts to build the module including an onboard MAX232, an extra 20Mhz resonator (optional to plug into the socket), and an EEPROM.  For those that just want a nice compact way to mount your SX48 chip the blank boards available and also on sale for $7.95 each (plus shipping).  The PCB is RoHS compliant, blue solder mask, and silkscreened on both sides for easy placement of parts.

Complete assembly instructions and schematics are included with each kit.  These modules are very handy to have around and i've been using them with all sorts of projects (mostly in SX/B at the moment).  Ports B, C, D, and E are brought out directly to the sides of the module and are clearly marked.  The four I/O lines of port A are reserved for the Serial port (via MAX232) and EEPROM but can be used for other purposes if you leave off those parts.

I've attached a picture of the deluxe kit contents for those that want to see what parts are included.

If you'd like one of these just send me a PM or an e-mail at: rdoerr@bizserve.com

Best Regards,

Robert
