Hi all,
I have been thinking of producing an hardware i/o development board for connection to the zaurus and / or a pc. This board would have the capability to connect to either machine either via the serial port or a usb port.
The main features would be:
* microcontroller based
* upto eight analogue input channels
* upto sixteen digital i/o channels
* expansion buses such as I2C and SPI for connection to external components such as EEPROMs, ADCs, DACs, RTCs, etc.
* ability to drive an LCD display
* two programmable PWM channels
* ability to update firmware on board
The applications of this board are very broad, and the exact specification are customisable to suit the needs of the end-user. A simple query based language can be used to communicate between the board and software applications such as within a C program or within Matlab.
If there is any interest in such a product please express your interests here. If anyone needs any other custom design work please send me a PM to discuss it.
regards,
Robert.
