    Picture of Kitronik 3V Vertical Submersible Water Pump

    Kitronik 3V Vertical Submersible Water Pump

    KI 25110
    This 3V vertical submersible low power water pump is an ideal solution for creating a small indoor water feature or as part of a plant watering system. At the heart of the pump is a 3V DC motor that runs quietly and only draws approximately 100mA.

    The pump needs priming before use and should be kept fully submerged during use as it will only pump water not air. Also, it only works in one direction as a pump, you cannot reverse the connections and have it move water in the other direction.

    It's 3V, 100mA power requirements are such that you could use a microcontroller with suitable drive capacity to switch it on or off. As the new micro:bit now has 200mA available for powering external devices, this pump can be powered directly by the micro:bit V2.

    The micro:bit can only drive 15mA from its pins, so a transistor or FET is required to control it from the pins, either in an on/off capacity, or, with PWM to vary pumping rate. If using the original micro:bit or if the microbit is already controlling other devices, this pump can also be powered and controlled via a motor driver board, or similar.

    Note: This pump is not supplied with any tubing.

    Features:
  • Vertical type submersible pump.
  • Operating power requirements are; 3V and 100mA.
  • Low noise DC motor.
  • Can be controlled with a simple on/off switch or microcontroller/motor driver board.
  • Ideal for small water features or plant watering systems.
  • A flow rate of 80L/H @ 3V and 100L/H at 4.5V.

    KI 5649-V2
    The MI:sound board is a speaker board for the BBC microbit. It features on-board; speaker, CR2032 battery holder, thumbwheel volume control and an easy access on/off switch. The MI:sound board can either be powered by the CR2032 battery (provided) or via the micro:bit USB or JST connections. It has been designed to work with micro:bit V1 and micro:bit V2.

    The speaker on MI:sound can be used in conjunction with the micro:bits onboard speaker or instead of. The micro:bit speaker can be turned off as there is a command/block for that in the MakeCode editor. Why would you want to? Volume! MI:sound's speaker is loud, and the potentiometer gives you control over its volume without the need to head back into the code. Super convenient!

    To use the MI:sound speaker board, the BBC micro:bit should be attached using the supplied bolts, spacers and nuts. Only Pin 0, 3V and GND need to be connected. Crocodile clips can also be used.

    When assembled, the MI:sound board is connected directly to the 3V, GND and P0 connections on the micro:bit. The 3V and GND connections provide power to the micro:bit and the built in buzzer is connected to P0, which is the default output pin when using the audio functions in the MakeCode software. The board has an easy to access on/off switch, which makes it easy to turn a project on and off.

    Like the MI:power board, MI:sound offers an elegant solution for micro:bit projects on the move. Both boards provide power to micro:bit, feature an on/off switch and allow you to output sound. Sound though is a much bigger feature on the MI:sound board. Where the MI:power board features a buzzer, MI:sound has an actual speaker with a thumbwheel volume control.

    Each of Kitronik's new ZIP sticks has 5 individually addressable RGB LED’s. Each LED can be controlled independently and all LEDs are connected using the same three wire bus. Each LED can produce a full spectrum of colours independent to all of the other LEDs on the bus. Each ZIP LED has a Red, Green and Blue element within the LED, and each of these can achieve 256 levels of brightness. This results in 16,777,216 possible output colours. Multiple ZIP LEDs can be connected to produce longer strings/strips.

    The LEDs used are based on the WS2812B part which is compatible with any WS2812B driver code. They can also be coded in the MakeCode Block/Javascript editor.

    Features:
  • Simple 3 wire connection for all LEDs.
  • Compatible with Adafruit NeoPixel and other WS2812B driver code.
  • Integrated reset circuit.
  • Supply voltage: 3.5V to 5V.

  • Dimensions:
  • Length: 34.3mm.
  • Width: 10.2mm.
  • Height: 3.2mm.
  • Hole Diameter: 2.2mm.

    Kitronik ZIP LEDs Add-On Pack for Kitronik Inventors Kit for the BBC micro:bit

    KI 5603-ZIP
    This add-on pack for the Kitronik Inventors Kit for the BBC microbit provides the perfect way to learn about the wonderful world of ZIP LEDs. These LEDs are simple to control and can be used to produce a whole range of fantastic colours. Most consumer electronics heavily rely on LEDs, as LEDs are a great way of providing instant visual feedback for the user. With this add-on pack, you will learn how to write code to take control of ZIP LEDs and also learn how to make ZIP LEDs respond to input from components such as potentiometers and sensors. There are ten experiments, 9 in the booklet and one online, that will help you develop the skills needed to add visual feedback to your projects.

    ZIP LEDs are individually addressable RGB LEDs. The name is a nod to the ZIP postal codes used in the US. Each LED can be controlled independently and all LEDs are connected using the same three-wire bus. Each LED can produce a full spectrum of colours, independently of other LEDs on the same bus. ZIP LEDs are based on the WS2812B part and are often referred to as NeoPixel’s (which is an Adafruit trademark) and are compatible with Adafruit NeoPixel and other WS2812B driver code. They can be coded for the microbit in both MakeCode Blocks and MicroPython.

    Features:
  • Learn how to control ZIP LED colours.
  • Learn how to move a light through any number of ZIP LEDs.
  • Learn how to control ZIP LEDs independently.
  • Learn how to make ZIP LEDs respond to input from electronic components and sensors.

  • Contents:
  • 2 x ZIP Stick - 5 LEDs each.

    Kitronik ZIP Tile for the BBC micro:bit

    KI 5645
    The Kitronik ZIP Tile is an 8 x 8 display panel for the BBC micro:bit. It can scroll text, show all the colours of the rainbow (and more) and multiple Tiles can be linked up to make even bigger displays! It features 64 colour addressable LEDs arranged in an 8 x 8 grid, ZIP LED expansion points on the left, right and top of the board, and the ability to connect a BBC micro:bit with both bolts and croc clips. It also breaks out P1 & P2 to standard 0.1” (2.54mm) footprints. Each of these pins also have the required supply voltage and GND pads.

    Power is provided via a JST connector on the rear of the board. The board produces a regulated supply that is fed into the 3V and GND connections to power the connected BBC micro:bit, removing the need to power it separately. To protect the BBC micro:bit if power is supplied through it, the ZIP LEDs will not illuminate.

    To use the ZIP Tile, the micro:bit needs to be connected to at least the GND, 3V and Pin 0 connections on the ZIP Tile. The BBC micro:bit can be connected via board-mounted nuts and M3 bolts (make sure the provided spacer is placed between the BBC micro:bit and the ZIP Tile if connecting on the rear), or croc clips. See Datasheet for detailed images. The Tile is supplied with 5 M3x12 countersunk screws and 5 plastic spacers. These are used to attach the BBC micro:bit to the ZIP Tile, with the spacers going in-between the Tile and BBC micro:bit.

    Features:
  • The ZIP Tile is an 8 x 8 display panel for the BBC micro:bit.
  • Featuring 64 addressable full-colour LEDs.
  • It has ZIP LED expansion points on the left, right and top of the board that allow for making larger displays.
  • Connect to a BBC micro:bit with both bolts (supplied) and croc clips.
  • It also breaks out P1 & P2 to standard 0.1” (2.54mm) footprints.
  • To protect the BBC micro:bit if power is supplied through it, the ZIP LEDs will not illuminate.
