Does SX Tech board have Vin connection?

mspeedie

I'm new to the SX. I assumed the SX Tech board would have a Vin similar to the connection on the Board of Education Basic Stamp Board but I'm not seeing one. Is there one I overlooked?

Thx, Mike

It's right there in the upper left corner, right by the regulator.· How could you miss it?

Post Edit -- Hmmm, maybe you mean V_IN available on a header pin, which there is not.· Improvise!

Mike,
The V in that you are familiar with on the BX2 proto board is not available on the SX tech board. It is available on the SX proto boards and is switched on and off by the power switch.

PJ Allen, you were right. I was looking for the V_in pin. I made my own. It gave me a good excuse to take a soldering iron to my new Proto Board!!!
