 The Javelin Stamp was the first real microcontroller I used. It ran a subset of Java and was able to be programmed using standard Java based programming structures and syntax. Today I was poking around the manufactures website and noticed it no longer exists for sale. It had been EOLed a few years ago, but now it can be officially reported as retired. I have created a few different products (for example Bell Controller 1.0) that use them as the brain of the device so they will continue to live on in them. So long little Javelin Stamp, I for one will miss your simplicity and ease of use.

Hi, Javelin was used in a project that was made a few years ago. But since it is now obsolete, I wanted to replace it with another DIP 24 microcontroller. Can you suggest any microcontrollers that can replace Javelin?

I recently bought a Mystery Box and this came to me in it. No information was available at Parallax, however I happened to save a CDROM that they sent out even farther back that this post. Performing a search of the topic to see what might be out on the web brought me here. I don't understand why this did not achieve the same following as the Basic Stamp, still in production. With the last post showing in 2016 the site owner may not even see this. I still have a couple of these devices sitting around on proto boards, but most of the devices I built around them are decommissioned now also. I still use some Parallax products, but most of my development is now ESP32 based due to the ease of web enabled tools and communications via WIFI and ESP-NOW between devices. Leave a Reply. |
