SX28AC/SS Programmer

lionheart408

Hello all, this is my first time posting here.

I just recently purchased the SX Tech starter kit which comes with the SX28AC/DPP, which I plan on using for testing purposes. But my main project will require a smaller chip i.e. the SS version of the SX28AC, so I was curious how I would go about programming it when I do purchase the SS chip. Is there an adapter that attaches to my tech board for teh different package type? or do I have to purchase anotehr protoboard for the SS chip? thnx for your replies.

Usually testing is done with the DIP version, then a "real" board is made with a programming header on it and the SS version is programming on the board.

Bean,

thank you for your reply. I'm still kind of unclear...where do I get the programming header? will it still be usng the SX-key that came with my protoboard?

*EDIT* nvm, I understand what you mean....thnx bean!

The SX processor can be programmed in-circuit thru a 4 pin (0.100 inch spacing) header using the SX-Key. Here's an example of a product that uses the SX28 programmed in-circuit www.parallax.com/detail.asp?product_id=28099
