The BASIC Stamp 2px24 serves as the brains inside of electronics projects and applications that require a programmable microcontroller. It is able to control and monitor timers, keypads, motors, sensors, switches, relays, lights, and more. Programming is performed in an easy-to-learn language called PBASIC.
All vital components (processor, clock source, memory, power regulator) are provided on the BS2px24’s tiny PCB; just connect power and go! Projects needing a small, permanent soldering area for circuitry may benefit from combining the BS2px24 with the the Super Carrier Board (#27130).
The BS2px24 is useful for those that have previous experience with the BS2 and would like more speed or special I/O configuration functions.
For customers that require a more powerful, multi-processing microcontroller, we recommend the Propeller 1 or Propeller 2 microcontroller.
