A personal digital controller, the Xplor-32 ($59.95) is designed for embedded control, limits monitoring, and data logging. The 2.15- by 2.2-inch board includes an 80C32 CPU, an 8-KB EEPROM, a serial port, and a 5-V regulator. From Blue Earth Research (Mankato, MN), the board's 12 digital I/O lines provide connections for interface components such as resistors, capacitors, and transistors.
