ST623X-KIT
The Starter Kit Board
The Starter Kit board includes the following re-
sources:
Reset and data control buttons.
LED indicators.
Resistance trimmer.
Temperature control circuit.
RS-232 interface.
Demonstration program selector jumpers.
Three 7-segment displays.
A voltage control oscillator.
It comes with its own power supply unit that can be
plugged into an AC mains source, or a DC source
with the following characteristics:
Voltage: 16V min./20V max., Current: 100 mA
min.
It includes the following connectors:
A parallel port connector (P1) for connection to
the host PC when it is used as a hardware sim-
ulator or for programming.
A remote resource I/O interface connector (J2)
to which you can connect your own hardware
resource.
An RS-232 connector, which you can use for
observing RS-232 communication control
using an ST6.
A connector for your own in-circuit ST6 pro-
gramming board.
