Parallax Inc Development Kit 27807

Our most popular BASIC Stamp microcontroller is the BS2-IC module. Widely used in education, hobby, and industry, this module has enough program space, execution speed, and I/O pins for many applications. Combined with our Board of Education platform and the "What's a Microcontroller Parts and Text Kit", you have a bona fide Getting Started kit for microcontroller programming and experimentation. The "What's a Microcontroller" book guides you through over 40 hands-on activities designed to provide you with the best possible introduction to the world of BASIC Stamp programming. The text contains clear explanations, defines electronics terms in a friendly manner, and most importantly builds your confidence so you can start building your own electronics inventions. You may use your Board of Education with the other Parts and Text Kits in our Stamps in Class Series.

A BASIC Stamp is a single-board computer that runs the Parallax PBASIC language interpreter in its microcontroller. The developer's code is stored in an EEPROM, which can also be used for data storage. The PBASIC language has easy-to-use commands for basic I/O, like turning devices on or off, interfacing with sensors, etc. More advanced commands let the BASIC Stamp module interface with other integrated circuits, communicate with each other, and operate in networks. The BASIC Stamp microcontroller has prospered in hobby, lower-volume engineering projects and education due to ease of use and a wide support base of free application resources.
