Testboard to the motherboard

Soon to come picture

The testboard

Together with the motherboard this will probably be a real nice one. Me and my collegue havent yet etched and assembled the card. Anyway i bring this text up so that I can show you the magnificent motherboard which is built tested with success. I have, so far, tried the 16F877A with a bootloader and then loaded a simple "blink some leds" program. Works like a charm :-). I will soon test the same bootloader with changed pic-code and configuration file for the PC program, to also work with 16F88.

This testboard will have a lot of options, buttons, DIP's LEDS, pots and also an extra lab board for even more external circuits. For example EPROM's motordrivers and so on.

To be continued in a few weeks.
