WTB: VIC-1011A
Hi guys,
Does anyone have one of these they'd part with? (gklinger, I'm thinking of you! LOL!)
If so, let me know the price and we'll set something up!
Thanks!

Sorry, I meant to include the link... (I'm sure most of you know it already)

It's not a VIC-1011A, but I currently have a "homebrew" RS-232 adapter up on eBay which may work for your project. Here's a link to the auction: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... 0534652280

Presumably these AVRs also support Ethernet (a lightning fast Google search suggests they do), so you could do everything on one board (no PC required!)Diddl wrote:It would be nice to have an AVR (Attiny2313 or a ATmega8) on the userport of my VIC instead of a VIC-1011A. An AVR could do all RS232 simply with internal UART.
Userport connector on one end, R-45 Jack on the other. Writing some RS232 to serial conversion code (or port tcpser, etc) would be relatively easy.
Yes, exactly this is my intention.Schema wrote:Presumably these AVRs also support Ethernet (a lightning fast Google search suggests they do), so you could do everything on one board (no PC required!)

Not only Ethernet, USB and RS232. Many things are possible easily with an AVR on the Userport: IEEE-488. I2C, digital IO, analog in ...

I picked up a freeduino and a ethernet shield to make a cheap serial server, but the serial libs have NO HANDSHAKING!. Kinda put a damper on my plans. Works great on a pc, like butt on a slow computer.Presumably these AVRs also support Ethernet (a lightning fast Google search suggests they do), so you could do everything on one board (no PC required!)

To answer your original question: Jay a.ka. Doppleganger makes and sells RS-232 boards designed by Jim Brain. There are two versions, one which emulates a Turbo 232 on the C64 cartridge port, or one that basically performs the same as a VIC-1011A on the user port (VIC or 64). The latter is the one you want, I forget the name.
