Input and Output Device Information:
Keyboard Connector (KD,KC)
The 6 pin mini DIN connector provides a connection and power to a computer
style keyboard (not included). A 4k7 pull-up resistor is included on the data and
clock lines.
Comamnds - kbin, keyin, keyled
Infra-red receiver (IRR)
The infra-red receiver circuit including pull up resistors in built onto the board. The
infra-red signal may be generated via the on-board infra-red LED or an external
device like a TV style remote control.
Comamnds - irin, infrain, infrain2
Infra-red LED (IRL)
The infra-red LED will light when a positive signal is applied. The cathode of the
LED is connected by a 330R resistor to 0V.
Comamnds - irout, infraout
Output LEDs (L1, L2, L3)
Three LEDs are provided (L1 to 3). The LED will light when a positive signal is
applied. The cathode of the LED is connected by a 330R resistor to 0V.
Comamnds - high, low, toggle
LDR Analogue Input (LDR)
The LDR is arranged with a 10k resistor in a potential divider arangement. The LDR
is connected between the input and V+, the resistor between the input and 0V.
Commands - readadc, readadc10
Preset Pot Analogue Input (POT)
The preset pot is a 10k device connected directly between the V+ and 0V power rails.
The wiper of the preset pot is connected to the input.
Commands - readadc, readadc10
Digital Input Switches (SW1, SW2, SW3)
Three switches are provided. The input is tied low by a 10k resistor, with the switch
connected between the input and V+. Therefore pressing the switch will result in a
high signal.
Commands - if pin... then
DS18B20 Temperature Sensor (TMP)
The digital temperature sensor (located at the bottom right of the breadboard) and
includes the 4k7 pull up resistor on the data line.
Commands - readtemp, readtemp12
Servo header (SVO)
The servo header provides a convenient way to connect a radio control style servo.
The power supply is connected directly to the header (R & B) and the signal wire
(Y) is connected to the SVO header.
