I need help on interfacing iPaq to Stamp. Has anybody done this
before? Any help greatly appreciated.

Yes, connecting the iPaq to a BStamp is very easy, 3 connections is
all that's needed just remember that when connecting the iPaq to the
BStamp be sure to connect the transmit pin of the iPaq to the receive
pin of the BS and the transmit pin of the BS to the receive pin of
the iPaq.

The comm control in eVB is very easy to use and the comm example
source code that comes with eVB will work for reading and writing to
the iPaq. You can then customize the file to suit your need.



I have everything you need. The entire CAD (DWG) and developer
(Adobe) files on the iPaq. What do you need?

Your Compaq iPAQ Pocket PC uses the cradle connector as one of the
ways to connect to the external world. The cradle connector supports
RS-232C, USB and AC adapter power input.

Review the following table for pin assignment:
Pin# Signal Name Description
1 V_ADP AC adapter power in
2 V_ADP AC adapter power in
3 DTR RS-232 Data Terminal Ready
4 GND Power ground
5 CTS RS-232 Clear To Send
6 RTS RS-232 Request To Send
7 TXD RS-232 Transmit Data
8 RXD RS-232 Receive Data
9 DCD RS-232 Data Carry Detect
10 GND Power ground
11 UDC_P USB positive signal line
12 UDC_N USB negative signal line
13 FG Frame ground
14 FG Frame ground
15 FG Frame ground
NOTE: Pin numbers 1-12 are physical signal pins while the remaining
pins are frame ground.
