Hello! Paul, everyone, can all of you describe, or better yet, point me to the schematic for the Hobby Boards design?
While I believe it can be done using the DS2408, which is what both firms have chosen, however I believe it can be redone in a better style using the DS2406, specifically the two switch per device arrangement. Let's just say it's my "Miracle Worker" nature coming out on this one. My one problem with the DS2406, duo device, will be mounting them. I obtained one a while ago, and had a little problem with it, and was able to hand solder it down. So far the sleds that have been made up for the SMT package styles do not match the one created by Maxim for the TSOC style. I actually did speak with a representative with Jameco concerning this issue, and he found it to be an interesting one. No such look having them commission a new series of sleds specifically for the TSOC style. -- Gregg C Levine [EMAIL PROTECTED] "The Force will be with you. Always."
