Propeller Video Application Board PCB

2" x 4" video application board for the Parallax Propeller ( link )

This board was designed during an applications of microcontroller course at Southern Illinois University
in the Electronic Systems Technologies program ( www.siu.edu/~isat/est ).  A minimal board for applications
and bread boarding was desired. The students explored microcontroller programming through the use of
the video features of the Propeller ( see images from course ).

bulletComposite video out (P12 group).
bulletMouse/Keyboard PS2 port (P24/25).
bulletHeader for breadboard - 16 I/O
bullet5.0V and 3.3V regulators
bullet2.1mm center-positive wall power input - 6 to 9V.
bulletPower and Debug LED (P27), reset button.
bulletScrew terminal with 5V, Vin, Vss and undedicated I/O.
bullet8 x 10 solder area.
bulletStandup or lay flat on breadboard dependent on header pins used.
bulletProgramming headers for both the PropPlug and 4D System's USB-CE5 (allows USB power for board).

Purchase the bare PCB and populate to your liking, many options for power and populating. 
Use stand-alone or with a breadboard.
