This from Microsoft
leads to this
- claims ~35x35mm module, and says this
"The most notable aspect of the .NET Micro Framework is that it does not need any underlying operating system. The Micro Framework requires very little in the way of system resources thus reducing the overall cost of a system. (The minimum memory resources are about 384K of FLASH/ROM and
256K of RAM)"Any one used this ? - the claims of 384KF/256KR on one page and
512KF/256KR on another, do not say what that is capable of running, nor minimul program sizes. Speed is also not discussed.If this downloads/runs MSIL instructions, pgms should be relatively small.
This is not that far above present single chip resource. Flash is well past 384/512KF, on top end devices, but few devices currently have 256KR. Some of this could move into ROM.
This could change the resorce targets for chip release ?
