One of the main purposes behind the OEM BS2sx is making it easier to embed a BS2sx
into an OEM design. When designing the BS2sx into an your product, please consider the
following:
Power Supply - The Basic Interpreter requires a ‘clean’ 5 Vdc supply. The LM2940 was
selected because of its wide operating range, built-in protection features, and ability to
deliver a lot of current. The value of the output capacitor, C1, was based on the
manufacturer’s
recommendations for input and output capacitance selection for the regulator that you will
be using in your design. Also, if the Basic Interpreter will be located more than a couple of
inches away from the power supply, it may be a good idea to add a 0.1 uF ceramic
capacitor across Vdd and Vss at the Basic Interpreter IC.
Resonator Location – Note that the resonator on the OEM BS2sx board is located
adjacent to the Basic Interpreter. When laying out your board, please choose a location
for the resonator that is as close as possible to the Basic Interpreter, and has the shortest
circuit traces possible to ensure reliable operation.
Regulatory Warnings – Stamps and their constituent components are not FCC approved.
They are not in finished product form. If you wish to obtain FCC approval, you must first
design the stamp into a product, then seek FCC approval of the whole product.
