Post by thread:[PIC]: Universal in 876 module idea.

I had an idea, to use a 16f876 for a device which would have modules to plug onto it with eeproms with code that the 876 loads for that specific module. So using one pic and a few eeproms and sockets, you could conceivably, have a programmer for any chip, or a logic analyzer or whatever. I was also debating that if anyone would build it, or if i could sell it as a commercial product. thanks andy n1yew -- http://www.piclist.com hint: The PICList is archived three different ways.

Have you seen the recent schematics? no, i havent looked, but i thought my idea would be easy to put together.. just use like a db25 for the signals in between the main + daughterboxen. andy {Quote hidden}> > - --Brendan > > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- > Version: PGPfreeware 6.5.8 for non-commercial use <http://www.pgp.com> > > iQA/AwUBPVhP0gVk8xtQuK+BEQK6MACfSs+N5s+1lO2JrDpX61AePtz1bnQAn1ft > XviEcGnidy7hwIdpIRivtSvi > =bCpk > -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- > > -- > http://www.piclist.com hint: The PICList is archived three different > ways.

How much more difficult is a 40-pin IDC than a 25-pin DB? - --Brendan P.S. As soon as I get some time to work on it again, it's already pretty far progressed.

Wayne and I have agreed on a 37-pin connector that will be compatible if the user wants to use the DB form factor. It looks like I simply forgot to update the CUMP page to reflect that. - --Brendan -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGPfreeware 6.5.8 for non-commercial use <http://www.pgp.com> iQA/AwUBPVli+QVk8xtQuK+BEQJW2gCg1iGtrQi8e/+ZKDCPiAdGUtzonk4AoLUq YvkkLr1mX9EurblLAt02RZ2S =vlUC -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- http://www.piclist.com#nomail Going offline?
