    Re: Amicus shields

    I captured it, redrew all the dimensions with a larger, darker font and created a new, more readable PDF.5592

    Re: Amicus shields

    The people who make XINO are promising a plug-in USB-Serial adapter. One can only hope that they are faster than Tibbo who still haven't released their long-promised Tibbo EM500/GA1000 firmware....

    Re: Amicus shields

    For my own use, in keeping with the philosophy of phrugality behind the XINO Basic board, I'd like to use a 16F88 with internal 8MHz OSC and with the two comparators used as inverters for the serial...

    Re: Amicus shields

    Do they provide virtual serial port drivers for Windows, Linux, OSX or must users write their own routines to handle USB?

    Re: Amicus shields

    Impressive. I wonder how they handle USB on the PC end.

    Re: Amicus shields

    Right now it looks like the ds30 bootloader will work with the 16F88 so I may end up with a nifty little, super economical development system for prototyping, testing PIC code and prototyping,...

    Re: Amicus shields

    Not according to Lester. :rolleyes: It's been more than a year.:(

    Thanks for the kudos. I think the layout is more or less final. I want to see the XINO board before deciding on the TX, RX & RESET...

    It also seems like a good way for noobies, etc. to be able to do hands on testing of things like the EM500, GA1000, ConnectOne modules,...

    Re: Amicus shields

    Bruce,

    I really don't use PICs beyond the 8-pinners and and occasional 16F688 or 16F88. For bigger projects I use ZBasic, who have added a lot of low level features that I've requested. At my age...

    Re: Amicus shields

    That's also missing the 4-pin power connector so it confirms the need for me to use the other power point.

    @Any moderator: Why is the EDIT function for recent posts so random? Sometimes I see it...

    Re: Amicus shields

    In the spirit of the Audino/Amicus/Xino/??? projects I want to make this as universal and flexible as possible.

    Looking at the pictures of the Xino Basic board I have on order, they do not have...

    Re: Amicus shields (A BEGINNING EM500/GA1000 LAYOUT)

    A bit of progress - I've identified the terminals along top & bottom of the board and have 3V3 and GND for the EM500 & GA1000. All that I need now are to decide on TX, RX, & RESET for the EM500 and...

    Re: Amicus shields (A BEGINNING EM500/GA1000 LAYOUT)

    Here is my initial layout. It lacks connections and needs a few other tweaks. I'll wait until I receive the Xino Basic board I ordered and until Tibbo releases the long-promised firmware for the...

    Re: Amicus shields

    After seeing the £1199.99 inc. VAT prices for bare shield boards on the Crownhill Amicus18 page I'm really certain that I want to design my own. :rolleyes:

    That might explain why they don't want...

    Re: Amicus shields

    Bruce,

    This may or may not help. The Arduino Internet Shield page at SparkFun has a reference design link (as well as numerous disparaging comments on that product). It has a layout with a .BRD...
