FEZ Spider Starter Kit is the very first commercially offered .NET Gadgeteer-compatible kit. it involves every thing required for educators, hobbyists and even professionals. Embedded development is rapidly &amp effortless (FEZ) thanks to .NET Micro Framework, .NET Gadgeteer and the numerous GHI worth added functions such as WiFi and USB Host.

The kit involves:

FEZ Spider Mainboard
Show T35 Module (three.5&quot with touchscreen)
USB Client DP Module (with USB cable)
Camera Module
2x Multicolor LED Module (DaisyLink)
2x Button Module
Ethernet J11D Module
SD Card Module
USB Host Module
Extender Module
Joystick Module
10cm IDC cables (incorporated with modules).
Assorted IDC Cable Pack:
4x 5cm IDC cables
3x 20cm IDC cables
1x 50cm IDC cable
Reusable Plastic Storage Box

FEZ Spider Mainboard is a .NET Gadgeteer-compatible mainboard based on GHI Electronics’ EMX module. This makes FEZ Spider Mainboard the most feature-complete .NET Gadgeteer compatible device in the market place. It includes all of .NET Micro Framework core functions and adds a lot of exclusive attributes, such as USB host, WiFi and RLP (loading native code). All these characteristics combine to give a fast prototyping platform.

Crucial Features:

14 .NET Gadgeteer compatible sockets that contain these kinds: X, Y, A, C, D, E, F, H, I, K, O, P, S, T, U, R, G, B and Z.
Configurable on-board LED
Configuration switches.

72MHz 32-bit ARM7 processor
4.5 MB Flash
16 MB RAM
LCD controller
Full TCP/IP Stack with SSL, HTTP, TCP, UDP, DHCP
Ethernet, WiFi driver and PPP ( GPRS/ 3G modems) and DPWS
USB host
USB Device with specialized libraries to emulate devices like thumb-drive, virtual COM (CDC), mouse, keyboard
76 GPIO Pin
2 SPI (eight/16bit)
I2C
4 UART
2 CAN Channels
7 ten-bit Analog Inputs
10-bit Analog Output (capable of WAV audio playback)
4-bit SD/MMC Memory card interface
6 PWM
OneWire interface (available on any IO)
Built-in Genuine Time Clock (RTC) with the appropriate crystal
Processor register access
OutputCompare for producing waveforms with higher accuracy
RLP enabling customers to load native code (C/Assembly) for true-time requirements
Extended double-precision math class
FAT File Method
Cryptography (AES and XTEA)
Low energy and hibernate support
In-field update (from SD, network or other)
Dimensions: W two.25&quot x L two.05&quot x H .5&quot

Energy

Low power and hibernate modes
Active energy consumption 160 mA
Idle energy consumption 120 mA
Hibernate energy consumption 40 mA

Enviromental:

Calls for .NET Gadgeteer common red power modules.
RoHS compliant /Lead-cost-free compliant

Most EMX computer software attributes are GHI exclusive, see computer software documentation for particulars.
