The SpinSocket(tm) modules are so small that they need a development board. Here it is.

This board focuses on battery power and flexibility. Features include:
  • 2 SpinSockets with flexible power configuration options
  • Propeller Platform compatible footprint
  • LiPo-Lion battery charger with jumper selectable charge type (JP2)
  • PropPlug and header for second module
  • Reset Button and Reset Enable header (JP3)
  • Jumper selectable SpinSocket powered VDD (JP1 & JP5)
  • Jumper selectable VCC (JP4)
  • LiPo or AA battery power (JP6)
  • VCC/Charger power switch (PWR)
  • VCC power on LED
  • VCC or Battery power select switch (VSELECT)
  • Holes designed for use with the attractive Bud Industries HH-3643 enclosure
  • Usable with Propeller Platform Hand-held Kit motherboard in HB-3430 with scored breakaway
  • Mostly through-hole components for kit users (2 SMD pre-stuffed parts)
See the SpinSocket(tm) thread linked here for more module information.

    This looks great! This and a couple of SpinSocket-Flash modules and I'll finally be able to start playing with a multi-Propeller platform! :-)

    Thanks guys.

    I have talked with Ken, and he's happy for me to use SpinSocket(tm) for the name of the product line.
