controller unit (MCU) from TI, the MSP430G2553. My ((Michael Kalus)) own experience with the 4e4th Forth for this MCU then brought us to work together on this project. For him and others interested then emerged this collaboration that he called internally, "his Swiss army knife" for electronics. A kind of combination tool for the usual in modeling: small, light, compact, versatile, virtually in a backpack and go to all sorts of useful, and expandable. And low cost, easy to build. | controller unit (MCU) from TI, the MSP430G2553. My ((Michael Kalus)) own experience with the 4e4th Forth for this MCU then brought us to work together on this project.

On this board there are only the minimum necessary components for the operation of the MCU of this MultiTool.The whole system is assembled quickly, reusable; and as it is extremely low cost, it can also be installed, another one built and used as intelligent IO, or tested to death during experimenting. | + | They are described very quickly: They actually consist of MCU, whose pins are taken to the outside of the board, so solder connections can be made easily and changed again and again.
