The CYB-233 Prototyping Board
One general purpose prototyping board available from Cybernetic Micro Systems is the CYB-
233 board. While this board was originally designed to support the CY233 Local Intelligent
Network Controller, it also contains a target socket area that will accept a CY545.
The CY545 can be commanded directly through its own serial port connection, or serially
through the CY233 and the parallel CY545 interface. With this second option, it is possible to
control multiple CY545s through one host serial port, as a network of motor controllers. The
CY233 acts as the network communications controller, recognizing commands meant for the
local CY545, while the CY545 runs the stepper motor as commanded by the host.
The CYB-233 board also contains a wire wrap area, to which you may add any special motor
driver interface logic, the local external memory, thumb wheel switch interface, or HP LED
display. This makes the board versatile enough to accommodate most CY545 applications, at
least for prototyping purposes.
The board is supplied in kit form, with complete assembly instructions and basic components.
