TetraProp
TetraProp is a PropellerPlatform compatible board with 4 Propellers.
It is designed for distributed parallel procecessing experiments.
Each Propeller Island is an individulal unit with headers for user connections.
TetraProp is available as a blank board or an "pre-assembled" kit.
Only the surface mount devices and crystal sockets are pre-assembled.
This is to maximize the user's flexibility.
