Pricing Information

bulletAll products come with an electronic manual (.PDF format).
bulletThe BDM12 comes with a command line oriented debugger for Windows 95/98/NT/2000/XP
bulletThe BotBoard Plus is supplied with a toolset including the dl11 downloader program.
bulletSofttools is offering a version of their Windows based Stingray Debugger for use with the BDM12. Check out www.softtools.com/tools/ for details.
bulletAll of the HC12 based kits and the RS-232/TTL cable have surface mount parts. I provide instructions on how to solder them. You do need to have a can of Paste Soldering Flux to mount these parts. If you don't have Paste Flux, I am offering it below. One can of paste flux will last you many years, and it is the most useful substance I can think of for soldering work.

 

Popular Development Packages

I have created a couple of packages of the most popular combinations of boards and tools. If you have no other tools or experience with these products, I highly recommend selecting one of the development packages as they will have all the tools you need to get started. Purchasing them as development packages will save you 10% on your purchase price. Note that these development kits are available in Kit and Assembled forms.

Parts and Accessories

I also have a few odds and ends for sale. Note that I do sell single quantities of chips. My intent is for these to be very small quantities. I am not really a chip supplier. These parts are taken from my kit inventory and are subject to availability. If you order 25 of something, I might turn you away. I also don't give quantity discounts.

  Description Part Number Price
PasteFlux A 2oz can of Kester Rosin Paste Flux, formula SP-44 which is used during the assembly of kits with surface mount parts, and also generally useful when ever you are soldering. Flux helps solder flow correctly. You can use this to rework cold joints, to clean the tip of your iron, and to mount surface mount parts. If you don't have a can of Paste Flux, and do any amount of electrical soldering, do your self a big favor and spend the two bucks. Trust me, it is semi-liquid gold. One can will last a typical hobbiest about 20 years! PasteFlux $2.00
68HC912B32 This is the MC68HC912B32CFU8 chip. It has 32k of Flash EEPROM, 1k of RAM, and a nice set of peripherals on board. MC68HC912B32 $21.95
68HC812A4 The XC68HC812A4 chip. Has onboard 4k of EEPROM, 1k of RAM, and a nice set of peripherals. XC68HC812A4 $17.95
68HC811E2 The MC68HC811E2CFN2 is a 6811 variant with 2k of EEPROM, 256 bytes of RAM. It is the chip used in the BotBoard Plus MC68HC811E2 $17.95
MC34064-P The MC34064P-5 is a Low Voltage Reset used on many of my boards. MC34064P-5 $2.00
