I am aware of the many boards out there, Rev-Ed, others, I use a couple from PH Anderson, in some model plane autopilot experiments, are kinda big for what I need, 18X for now.
My side micro company is considering a range of PICAXE units, but how to do it?
From the 08M to the X2 big ones, people need dc outputs, ac outputs, analog, digital in, filtered and clamped perhaps, frequency,
I2C, serial, USB, CAN, satellite etc. Trying to pick a useful configuration is difficult, then you have the form factor problem. Some people care about weight and size and others don't. Plus the power supply.
One idea is a "motherboard strip" that would accept a processor board, and
multiple, mix and match I/O boards. From my work so far, I prefer I2C, as it
allows almost infinite expansion with minimal lines. Just picking your brain, not
sure if a good idea..
Only around in evenings, USA time.
