Starting place for Noobs.
Welp I'm a complete noob... As in like many I don't even know how to etch my on pcb.
This leaves me thinking there are Two starting problems tackle to get this chip to be easier to use. A lot of this is intimidating so making it easy is the way to go.
STEP 1: Making a Vero Layout
Vero is the domain of the layman like myself... I'm not in the know about the FV-1 enough to design a full vero yet... but I can leave a good starting point for anyone trying to tackle the project... Scroll down to the 28 Pin SOIC addaptor... http://www.futurlec.com/SMD_Adapters.shtml
Grab some of these ( http://www.futurlec.com/ConnHead.shtml
& http://www.futurlec.com/Sockets/ICS28.shtml ) and you can now try and make a Vero Layout...
STEP 2: A simple, CHEAP(>$15), way to program the eeprom.
Well I'm still working on this...

For the actual programming procedure see my manual chapter 5

Piet's suggestion to use a PicKit2 for in-circuit programming is a good solution.ArkAngelHFB wrote:Naa it didn't pan out... looking into other options.frank wrote:You really need to ask them if it supports the 24LC32A.

I will probably end up going with that but I'm trying to get the cost down further...frank wrote:Piet's suggestion to use a PicKit2 for in-circuit programming is a good solution.ArkAngelHFB wrote:Naa it didn't pan out... looking into other options.frank wrote:You really need to ask them if it supports the 24LC32A.
Actually this clone is enough cheep and works very well. I have one of these.
