... USB / Microcontroller Module The DLP-245SX combines the same USB interface used in the DLP-USB245M module with a Ubicom SX28 microcontroller to form a rapid development tool. The SX28 microcontroller is preprogrammed with basic functionality for accessing the port pins and can be reprogrammed with user hex code via a 5-pin header (4 pins used) that is compatible with the DLP-FLASH device programmer (purchased separately) ...

... Features include the ability to read and write individual port pins as well as 8-bit port reads and writes. The firmware in the DLP-245SX also provides access to the on-board EEPROM memory, and communications with digital temperature-sensing devices. Commands sent to the Token I/O firmware must adhere to a specific communications protocol. ...
