A Primer for Programming and Applying the Simple Laboratory Integration Platform (SLIP)

Abstract

The simple laboratory integration platform (SLIP) is a microcontroller-centric single-board processing system designed to streamline electronic integration efforts. A guide is presented with which programmers can readily access the SLIP system for application to a wide variety of laboratory automation tasks. The required hardware and software components are listed along with sources where they can be obtained. A series of obscure, but necessary, housekeeping tasks are presented to streamline the process of configuring, initializing, and activating the SLIP. Finally, a sample C program is provided and discussed to demonstrate the workflow process of writing, compiling, downloading, debugging, and executing code on the SLIP.
