PICAXE AXE007M2 08M2 Microcontroller

The PICAXE 08M2+ is part of a microcontroller system that uses low cost FLASH memory based microcontrollers with a unique, pre-programmed PICAXE bootstrap code. This gives a device that may be reprogrammed typically 100,000 times without the need for an expensive and complicated programmer.

PICAXE is programmed using a simple BASIC language or via the Logicator flowcharting software.

Programming is carried out via a simple USB (13-0849) or serial (13-0847) cable. In addition to the microcontroller chips, starter, tutorial, and upgrade kits are available to provide a complete PICAXE solution.
