StampII data storage question
I am designing a Stamp2 based GPS data logger which will collect data every
6 minutes for up to a week. I have calculated that I need to store 60 bytes
every 6 minutes which calculates out to 60*10=600 bytes/hour or 600*24=14400
bytes/day or 14400*7=100800 bytes/week. I would like to store the data in
non-volatile flash memory. Does anyone have a workable idea as to how I can
store at least this much data?
Any advice/ideas would be appreciated
TIA
Vic

Parallax provides a product call StampMEM that can handle this job. It is a
serial eeprom storage system that uses one pin on the stamp. It will hold
65,000 bytes which is near your requirement.
you can put 8 of them on the same 2 pin bus. If you wanted more storage, you
could put 8 more on 2 other pins.
