USB on a Stamp
Archiver

Hi folks,
Due to the recent re-interest in USB on a Stamp, I thought I'd pdf the web
page on my site, and upload it to the files section for easy reference.
The document gives some pointers on using USB with a BS2. The example shown
is a simple (but Slow) one showing a "Bridge" (USB to RS232).
USB is so easy to implement. If you were to use USB on the Stamp (and not
the built in RS232 port), you can get up to 1MB transfer rates).
The PC software is Mac based :-) but the same basic principles apply to
Windows and Visual Basic.
Cheers,
Ben

there is no hidden message revealed by reading this warning backwards.
