The DLP-PROP is a pre-assembled, USB-powered module for developing with the new Propeller™ chip from Parallax.  A FT232RL chip from FTDI is used to provide the USB interface.  This module has an on-board 3.3V regulator, EEPROM for program storage and comes in a standard 0.9-inch wide, 40-pin footprint.  User electronics can be connected via the 28 unused I/O pins.

The Propeller is clocked via a 6MHz external clock.  Using the on-chip PLL in the Propeller, the following clock frequencies can be generated internally: 6, 12, 24, 48 and 96MHz.

The DLP-PROP was developed to be fully compatible with Parallax’s new Spin™ programming language and development environment. For detailed operating instructions, refer to the Propeller Manual, available from the Parallax website.
