The PropStick USB is a rapid development tool for the Propeller chip which provides access to all 32 I/O pins on a 0.1” pin spacing format. It features a built-in P8X32A-M44 Propeller chip, 32 kB EEPROM, 3.3 V regulator, FTDI mini USB interface, and reset button.The 5.00 crystal is socketed for replacement. This module is intended to be used in a breadboard or other through-hole design, and could be used with the circuits and example code in the Propeller Education Labs.
The PropStick USB is fully assembled and features:
- Propeller P8X32A-M44 chip
- 32kB 24LC256-I/ST EEPROM
- FTDI FT232RG and mini USB connector
- USB data transfer indicator LEDs
- 5 MHz crystal in a removable socket
- 3.3V 500mA voltage regulator
- Reset pushbutton switch
The PropStick USB is not intended to be plugged into Parallax 40-pin BASIC Stamp board sockets (found on the Professional Development Board, for example). Differences in programming interface, pinouts and operating voltages are the main reason behind this incompatibility.
