MoBoStamp-pe BS2pe Motherboard (#28300)
General Description
The MoBoStamp-pe provides a compact, professional-grade platform for BASIC Stamp applications. With
the MoBoStamp-pe and the assortment of available daughterboards, you will be able to integrate and
package one-off or multiple application systems with ease. The onboard AVR coprocessors permit the
offloading of compute-intensive and background tasks from the BASIC Stamp, yielding a high
performance level, while retaining the BASIC Stamp’s ease of programming. They come preprogrammed
for digital I/O, analog input, pulse-width-modulated output, and frequency counting. Each coprocessor
interfaces to both the BASIC Stamp and one daughterboard each and may be reprogrammed by the user.
Potential uses include background serial I/O, floating point processing, and background servo pulsing.
Before using your MoBoStamp-pe, please read and understand this entire document.
Features
•
Compact size: designed to fit available packaging.
•
BS2pe BASIC Stamp chip for high performance with low current consumption.
•
32K x 8 EEPROM for program and data storage.
•
Built-in USB interface, capable of powering the entire board.
•
Two sockets for plug-compatible daughterboards, enabling the easy integration of sensors and
interface options.
•
Two user-programmable Atmel AVR coprocessors, preprogrammed for digital I/O, PWM output,
analog input, and frequency measurement.
•
Multi-mode power sourcing: board can run from USB or external power.
•
Multiple Vdd levels: 3.3V and 5V, jumper selectable.
•
User-programmable multi-color LED for status indication.
•
Programming header for future interface to an SX-KEY. This will allow programming the SX chip
directly.
