NB2A Protoboards

The NB2A-PB1 prototyping board (right) is designed for creating TH and SMD ciruitry to connect to an NB2A. All of the I/O pins from the NB2A microcontroller are connected to two rows of vias.

Features

• Input connector is compatible with the NB2A output connector.
• 3.55" x 2.15" breadboard area with TH and SMD patterns. Pattern features a DIP, SOIC and SOT23-6 pattern overlay.
• Two bounceless push-buttons (with optional SMD components). The pushbuttons can be jumpered to digital input pins if the SMD components are not used.
• Two debug LEDs.

Usage

The picture on the left shows the NB2A-PB1 connected to a NB2A using right-angle connectors. Vertical connectors enable stacking of the boards, a ribbon cable could be used to remotely connect boards. Also both boards could be plugged into a backplane.
