Anyone use the Solderless Proton Dev Board?

[Ron Marcus]

I made my own by screwing a solderless breadboard to the lid of a 4x6 plastic Radioshack box. The uProcessor board is mounted on the lid also with the IO ports coming out as 22 guage wire long enough to plug into the solderless breadboard. I also hard wired four momentary buttons to the processor for user input. It looks like a spider colony but works amazingly well. I do not screw down the lid so when done, all the components I am working on go inside the box. I now have all sorts of development boards, but still ocasionally use "Charlotte" for quick assembly and testing.

I use a solderless breadboard from Maplin for developing my projects, and used ISCP to program PICs whilst still plugged in to the board.



Cost was £10, and if you want more space they do two larger sizes, the larger is twice the size of the one show above and is still only £17

The one thing the Crownhill board offers is the built in serial comms, regulators, etc
