EEPROM carrier boards ("CMOS widgets") now on sale

Posted by Steve Revill Wed, 29 Feb 2012 19:05:00 GMT

RISC OS Open Ltd (ROOL) are pleased to announce that we’ve teamed up with Sprow to bring you an EEPROM carrier board (or “CMOS widget”) for the BeagleBoard, BeagleBoard xM and PandaBoard.

You simply plug this little board onto the relevant header pins on your board and newer versions of RISC OS (5.18 or newer) will automatically detect it and start saving your RISC OS configuration over reboots.

These boards are an essential add-on for BeagleBoard and PandaBoard users. They cost just £5 plus £1.50 P&P.

Find out more here.
