Title: DIPFORTy1 "Soft Propeller"
Post by: gnaylor on September 03, 2015, 04:58:36 PM
This looks an exciting new product - is the price going to carry on coming down  ;)
It should certainly be useful for embedded IOT type devices - but hang on, no ethernet connectivity. If only it had a USB port, I could stick in a wifi dongle. Are there not 2 MIO pins available to connect a regular USB port (OK makes the board a bit longer, but would definitely be worth it)?
This is crying out to run Linux to run a regular file system on the SD card - but you really would like to copy on to it from an external source. How do you expect this to be done?
Anyway - well done, this looks really cool!

DIPFORTy2 is what you are after - linux capable, and with USB on board, same mechanicals.

Is it any development board or driver board or any interfacing board?
Is it a control board? Also what are its applications and what are its hardware components?
