eZ430-F2013 development tool

mouser sells the 40 pin version of the sockets and headers. sockets cost $12, headers cost $8. they are snappable. kind of pricey when all you want is 4 pins worth. especially considering that the ez430 costs $20 if you actually buy one. maybe sparky could carry them… I think $3-4 would be a fair price.

has anyone done a solderless BB header for the detachable F2013 module? I’m actually thinking of desoldering the socket and putting 2 sets of right angle headers so the pins are 300 mills apart. then I’d have the programmr connector and easy access to all the pins in a breadboard.

that 2013 is a complex beast. their documentation doesn’t help much. I’m finding it a bit of a slough trying to put all the pieces together. It took me several reads of the DCO stuff to figure out how to get the thing to run reasonably fast. And doing PWM took a lot of flipping between sections.
