Presto Boards
The new Presto range from Modtronix consist out of electronic modules with press-fit connectors. The press-fit connectors allow different products to be easily built by simply plugging the desired modules together. The Presto SBC Boards have ports designed for the press-fit modules to be plugged into.

The following products with ports for press-fit connectors are available and planned:
Presto SBC Boards, Single board computers that have ports for Press-Fit Presto modules, like the iMod modules.
Presto Prototype Boards, Boards with prototype space, and ports for Press-Fit Presto Modules. Prototype space can be used to create own circuit.
Presto Ports can be used to add a power supply (pMod Modules), interfaces (iMod Modules) and SPI/I2C serial peripherals (sMod Modules) like EEPROM, Flash, SRAM, RTC... This is a Future Product!

The following modules with press-fit connectors are available and planned:
Presto iMod Modules, Interface modules with press-fit connectors. Initial products will include Ethernet, RS-232, RS-485, 1-Wire and CAN Bus Interfaces. Future products could be with IR, Zigbee, USB, LIN and other interfaces.
Presto pMod Modules, Power modules with press-fit connectors. First modules will be 5V and 3.3V power supplies, implemented as DC/DC Converters, Linear Power Supplies and Battery Power Supplies. This is a Future Product!
Presto sMod Modules, Serial Modules with SPI/I2C Serial peripherals, and press-fit connectors. Initial products will have 32K SRAM (AMI), 32MBit FLASH (Winbond or SST), SPI EEPROM and I2C RTC with super capacitor backup. This is a Future Product!

IM16P8P
Double width iMod prototype board, press-fit connectors, Lead Free. CAD$2.40 In Stock

Click here for larger image

Description
The im16p8p is a prototype board that has been designed to fit on two adjacent imod Ports. It can however also be mounted on other boards, like Vero Board, or Modtronix MicroX Prototype boards. An iMod port is basically just two rows of 8 pads, and is present on many Modtronix boards as a method of adding functionalty, for details, click here. This board has protyping space for adding custom circuitry, and space for a 8 pins, 3.5mm terminal block connector to be soldered on, like the TB08MP350 or TB08B-F350-W4.
For this board to be mounted onto a target board, two pin headers or press-fit pin headers have to be soldered onto it. They are soldered in the two iMod port connectors (two outer rows of 8 pads), as shown in this picture. These rows are spaced 1.6" (40.64mm) apart, which is the width of two adjacent iMod ports. Each row has 8 pins, 2.54mm (0.1") appart. It is recommended to use the following connectors:
Two HDR1X5PF-M254-30 5 pin male, 2.54mm, press-fit headers. These connectors are soldered onto the top 5 pads of the 8 pin connectors, as shown in this picture. By using a 5 pin, in stead of 8 pin, press-fit connector it is much easier inserting and removing the board from the target board. The top 5 pins of the iMod port contains the power, and signals required for most circuits.
Two HDR1X8PF-M254-30 8 pin male, 2.54mm, press-fit headers. By using two 8 pin connectors,
Two HDR1X8-M254-30 8 pins male, 2.54mm, pin headers.
For a prototyping solution, two HDR1X8-F254SWISS female headers can be soldered onto the target board, and two HDR1X8-M254SWISS 8 pin male, 2.54mm, pin headers onto this board. This will allow this board to easily be plugged into, and removed from the target board.

Current Modtronix products with iMod ports are:
Presto SBC Boards
The im16p8p is part of the Modtronix Presto iMod product range.

The im16p8p has two rows of press-fit connectors on the bottom of the board. They can be pressed into 1.00mm holes on a 1.6mm thick (standard PCB thickness) target board. No special tool is required, they can be inserted by applying firm pressure to the connectors. Once fitted to the target board, the board is very secure, and can not be removed by hand any more. A screwdriver or similar tool can be used to remove the board if required. If the im16p8p is to be soldered onto the target board, 1.10mm holes can be used. This will allow it to be inserted much easier than with 1.00mm holes. When using 1.10mm holes, the board can be removed by hand.
