This page refers to the 'C' programmable stamp format computer developed 2002-2004 by Faraday Engineering.

CStamp is a standalone computer in "stamp" format (24 Pin DIP). CStamp is comparable to the Basic StampTM by Parallax, however it runs 'C' code rather than BASIC. CStamp opens the stamp world to those who prefer 'C' as a programming language. Same pinout as Basic Stamp 2 modules, so you can use Parallax starter kits and accessories.

CStamp Features:

Executes 'C' language at approximately 8,000 instructions per second.
Builtin low dropout, low quiescent current regulator.
(3) Status LED's.
12 bit multichannel A/D.
Dedicated programming/debugging serial port.
Auxillary hardware high speed serial port.
16K byte (128K bit) EEPROM for program and parameter storage.
Onboard processor clock.
16 pins I/O (shared with Aux Serial and A/D).

CStamp Uses:

Hobby servo control.
PWM motor control.
LCD module controller.
Analog measurements.
Temperature taking.
Data logging.
Serially controlled computer.
Learning about 'C'.

CStamp ships with Windows development IDE including ANSI like 'C' compiler supporting char, int, long, and float data types. Great for learning 'C' programming too! Great for educators.
