I have run the board with one of my 250Kbit protocols on rs485. Board works well and has no problems. I did change the crystal to 8MHZ to facilitate the 250kbit baud rate. At the price offered, you will find that you cant beat the time/effort factor. Its a solid product and performs flawlessly. One thing i really like is the oversized regulator. perfect for additional hardware and doesn't "duck" like the other boards with their little to-92 regulators. The 4mbit flash is nice and quick as i have serial routines that save incoming data onto the flash, at 38400 baud, the board keeps up and has no problem saving data.

I wish I could get one ... Probably I will try to build One ;) Did you purchase from South Africa Office?

Probably I will try to build One ;)

Perfect to use a development base. This is a great deal, i’ve bought the ‘128 board as it has all the usual breadboard pins and a built in power supply and serial port access.
