Pin count doesn't really matter in my oppinion. It's more the number of specific pins (like there are 3-6 PWM pins on an atmega168), there are only 2 on a 16F877.
I think this is the main problem. Next to that the routing will be difficult. which means there will be some dual layer work :) It was just an idea I was playing with. I think too that such a board has to be kept really cheap to be successful. But also an easy programming language ( could be a problem too with JAL) On 13 jul, 18:40, Sebastien Lelong <[email protected]> wrote: > > @development board: What about this one then: > > >http://jallib.blogspot.com/2009/06/pic-18f4k50-usb-interface-board-pa... > > . > > You've responded to that post already with some feedback I see :-) > > > What I think that would be useful is to make this development board > > pincompatible with the arduino, so you can use their shields too.
