oPossum 1,083 Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 This is a breakout board for 20 pin DIP package MSP430. It is intended to plug in to a solderless breadboard. Dimensions are 50.0 mm x 24.6 mm, so two will fit on a 50 x 50 mm panel. It is SIL style rather than the more common DIL style so that all the pins can be clearly labeled and logically ordered. This style also allows 4 of the 5 holes in a column be be used. Can be used with straight or right angle header strip. The circuit is minimalist with just a bypass cap and resistor on /Reset. Optional xtal and power LED. Provision for 50 mil and/or 100 mil program/debug/UART headers. Selectable soft or hard UART configuration. In addition to the 18 pin header on the bottom, there is an optional 2 pin header that connects to the power rails of the breadboard. dip_breadboard.brd dip_breadboard.sch nuetron, DanAndDusty, gordon and 2 others 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nuetron 64 Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 Whoa... To say that this is an attractive board would be an understatement. When will the un-populated boards be available, and at what price? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
