Stamp Controller module designed for classroom activites. Recommended equipment for all Technological Studies courses. Microcontroller based unit that is programmed in a simple BASIC style language.
See the PICAXE system for the cheap project work microcontroller system that uses the same programming language!
Features:
The Stamp Controller has been developed as a direct response to teacher requests for a 'Stamp' based board that can be easily (and reliably) used for classroom exercises. Each input/output line is connected to both modular sockets and 'screw terminals'. A unique feature of the Stamp Controller is a 'buffered' LED on each pin, which indicates the status of each input or output. This is a very useful feature that enables pupils to visually understand the 'condition' of input and output signals.
