BX24 prototyping board - davidsousamendes - Apr 3 10:46:17 2007
Hello fellows
After several projects developed with BX24, I finnaly decided to
introduce BX24 in my Electronics lessons...
I bought BX24 proto board because I thought it would be easier to the
students (instead of the breadboard that I use)... The thing is:
How can I wire my own circuits in the board?! The board only has a
large space with holes that are too large to sustain any component
(resistor, capacitor or whatever)?!! And the connections underneagh
are not like on a breadboad!!
Regards
David M.

Hi David,
I'm not sure I fully understand your question, but Robodyssey's RAMB
II motherboard may be the thing you are looking for. The board is
small and very robust. In addition to the normal 3 male header pins
(for signal, power, ground), the board has female jumper wire
connectors for each of the microcontroller's I/O pins as well as a
connector for regulated 5V and battery power. There are two female
ground connectors on the board. This means you can design your
circuit on a breadboard and then simply use jumper wires (any
stripped solid wire will do) to connect your circuit to the RAMB
II. My students and I use this technique all the time when we in
the prototyping phase of development and it works great.

http://mivasecure.abac.com/bpatton/merchant.mvc?

(this RAMB II kit costs $35 and requires soldering)
http://mivasecure.abac.com/bpatton/merchant.mvc?

(this kit is $50 but comes assembled)
Hope this helped.

Hi,
Is the board is the same one as shown in this link, you can still use it by using the Jameco push-in terminals. The terminal is forced into the board and then you can solder the components to the board without damage the board. There are three types 34147,34155 and 34163. I think the best one is the 34147, the others are wire wrap type. Check it online www.jameco.com. The cost is $7.29/100pc units.
Attached is the link:

It sounds like you are describing a soldered prototyping area (like
the top image at http://www.phanderson.com/basicx/index.html), not a
solderless breadboard (second image). If you intend to experiment -
adding and removing components easily as you learn - you have the
wrong board.

Re: Re: BX24 prototyping board - David Sousa Mendes - Apr 6 8:04:04 2007
No, what I'm looking for is like from Parallax:
http://www.parallax.com/detail.asp?product_id=28850
but for the BasicX24 chip...
Is it possible?
Best regards
David M.

Hello
The boards that I bought are shown at http://www.basicx.com/
Click over Products and then BasicX-24 Development Kit Board
Do I have to solder the components over it?
That's not what I want... I need one where the students can constantly change the components, just like on a breadboard...
...
