Connect One’s IIEVB-PIC-2128 evaluation board includes the iChipSec CO2128 network system-on-a-chip (SoC) as well as Microchip’s PIC24 microcontroller. The dualcore module supports local-area network (LAN), Wi-Fi, and cellular links with SSL security. The CO2128 acts as a firewall and supports TCP/IP protocols such as SMTP, POP3, and HTTP. The PIC24 host communicates with the CO2128 using the AT+i command set. The host features 64 kbytes of flash and 8 kbytes of RAM in addition to a serial peripheral interface (SPI) and an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) interface. Pricing for the evaluation board starts at $149.

I earned a Bachelor of Electrical Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology and a Masters in Computer Science from Rutgers University. I still do a bit of programming using everything from C and C++ to Rust and Ada/SPARK. I do a bit of PHP programming for Drupal websites. I have posted a few Drupal modules.

I still get a hand on software and electronic hardware. Some of this can be found on our Kit Close-Up video series. You can also see me on many of our TechXchange Talk videos. I am interested in a range of projects from robotics to artificial intelligence.
