About the Basic Stamp Updates
BSII

- 2048 Bytes of EEPROM(non-volatile)
- Clock speed of 20 MHz.
- Holds 600 lines of code in EEPROM
- executes an average of 4000 instructions/sec
- 32 Bytes of Ram(16 of it for variable storage)
- 16 I/O pins, plus two synchronous serial pins
- Programmable with a PC/Mac through a serial connection with PBasic.




The Basic Stamp is a small computer that are programed with Parallax Basic(PBASIC) programs. They have fully programmable I/O pins that can be used to directly interface to LEDs, TTL devices, speakers, servos,and many more things. It can be purchased through Parallax Inc. for about $49 US. They are well worth the money. You can buy a starter kit from Parallax for about $149. This gives you the Stamp, PBaisc programming language, serial cable to connect to your computer, 300 page manual, and carrier board. I however found it a lot cheaper(about half the cost) if you just buy the Stamp and the carrier board get the rest of the things yourself.

Sorry for the lack of updates on my page over the past months. As a Engineering Student I just dont have time. Schools over in another month, so look for quite a few updates over the spring and summer.

Started my PIC section of my website. I dont have any PIC projects up yet, but there coming.

Updated my altimter page. I finally finished my pocket altimeter and it works great. I'm very pleased with the result.

Added a new project "Interfacing a 64K serial EEPROM to the Basic Stamp" Great for those datalogging applications.
