any circuits design for beginners??

For beginner information on stamping, go to the Parallax website and
download the "What's a Microcontroller?" book. If you go to
www.parallaxinc.com and click on their downloads link on the left side,
scroll down the right side, and you will see that book. That is a good
starting place, and you can download more books if that one is too easy.
They have about 6 books for downloading, I think.

Hope this helps,
Eric

Hi Group
Can any one share some circuit for basic stamp beginners .. can you give me
your web site ? i am new to basic stamp .. how do i start with simple
circuits ? and programming ?

    Dr. Patel,

    I agree with Eric, the best place for beginners to start is with our What's
    a Microcontroller text. We have a web site called www.stampsinclass.com.
    Go to the Downloads page and get the six experiments in the What's a
    Microcontroller text. This text is the very beginning of our Stamps in
    Class curriculum. Starting from simple and working up to advanced, here is
    a list of the texts available at the stampsinclass site:

    What's A Microcontroller?
    An introductory survey of circuits and programming techniques for the BASIC
    Stamp 2.

    Basic Analog and Digital
    A closer look at how to take analog voltage measurements and convert them to
    numbers the BASIC Stamp 2 can work with. The visa-versa case of converting
    numbers to voltage levels is also introduced.

    Robotics!
    Experiments with the Board of Education Robot (Boe-Bot). Material from the
    first two texts is applied to mechatronics.

    Earth Measurements
    A variety of practical sensor measurements with the BASIC Stamp 2. Very
    interesting and entertaining material.

    Industrial Control
    A BASIC Stamp 2 based survey of Process control techniques. Very practical
    techniques for automating systems that are influenced by the environment
    (thermal, mechanical, inputs, etc). Takes you all the way through a
    Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) tuning example.

    Hi Patel,

    In addition to the other excellent suggestions, be sure to check out our
    Stamp Project of the Month -- every month we have a different design that
    you may find educational. http://www.al-williams.com/awce/som.htm -- follow
    the link to the document library and you'll find some of the past projects.

    Also, check out www.hth.com/losa for a list of what others have done with
    Stamps. Oh, and don't forget our Stamp FAQ at
    http://www.al-williams.com/wd5gnr/stampfaq.htm

    Have fun!

    Hi Mr Patel,
    if you are looking for simple models to control using
    the Stamp, then have a look at my web site www.controlmodels.co.uk
    If you are interested in a universal Stamp interface, which takes digital
    and analog inputs and gives on/off and reversing outputs, then I can mail a
    circuit and PCB to you.
