Guys,

Need some help here...· I now have some FRAM chips, but the "thing-a-ma-jig" has the type of leads that are for the mass produced boards.· I need some way to connect this chip to my basic stamp, but my soldering abilities are not good enough to make this work.

Is there an adapter out there that I could use to make this chip work?· Any ideas?· I was excited to get the chips, but I don't know how to connect to them.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Joe

    If you have a data sheet for the chip and can e-mail it to me, I might be able to make·a tiny little board on my PC milling machine that I could solder your chip to with pads for each pin so you could connect it to your Stamp.· Be sure and indicate exactly which chip you have.

    My address is Newzed@aol.com.

    Do you have a Stamp Tester yet?

    No charge, of course.

    I have four 256k surface mounts as well that I bought last month thinking they were DIPs.

    Ramtron was kind enough to send me some old DIP chips FM24C64-P and I have not yet hooked them up. I will be interested to see your circuit connections and code so I can make mine work. Wouldn't mind tradeing them for something else, I don't really need them but I do want to learn how to use them so the 64k chips will work for that. I read the datasheet but I am not good enough to figure it out yet.

    If you will be discussing these chips here, it would be a nice lesson in reading the datasheet and having someone translate that into laymans terms (So I can understand it) .
