Product Selector

Post by Don_Kirby »

It's been a while since I went shopping for a new ZX device. I'm wondering if there is a parametric product selector, or perhaps a simple side by side comparison of the different device features. While I don't think I need the extended capabilities of the Oak Micros devices, comparing their features as well would be useful.

There is a ZX Device Parameters web page that lists all of the devices and some parameters. On the main ZBasic page toward the bottom you'll find a link to that page and a link to an Excel spreadsheet containing the same information.

Thanks Don. That helps immensely.

Does the ZX-24x really have 14 16-bit PWM channels, or is that a typo?

Sorry, that number is incorrect - it should say 7+5. The reason for this is that seven of them are in the normal 24-pin footprint and five additional ones are on the "pins" across the ends of the device.

Even on the ZX-32a4 there are only 12 usable PWM channels because two of the otherwise-available PWM outputs are on the same pins as Com1 RxD/TxD.

The documents have been updated.
