Propeller Proto Board
It's back! The Parallax’s Propeller Proto Board is a low cost, high quality solution for 1-off or low quantity permanent projects using the Propeller chip. To save the user some expense, the USB programming interface is not included on the Propeller Proto Board. A Prop Plug (#32201) is recommended for programming, sold separately. A USB2SER (#28024) may also be used for programming with the addition of a 4-pin header.
