Kitronik Terminal Block Breakout for the BBC micro:bit
KI 5651
The Terminal Breakout board for the BBC microbit does exactly what it says on the tin. It breaks out all of the signal and power pins on the microbit to user friendly terminal blocks. No more untangling M/M or M/F jumper cables from the hastily tidied collection stashed in the corner of your drawer. Just cut a length of wire from one of your more tidy spools, strip off a bit of shielding and screw it into place in the appropriate terminal block. And, if you need to move your project for any reason, having the wires screwed in place means that you can do it without having to deal with the jumper connections that didn't survive the move. Build your circuit only once!
It features a terminal block breakout point for each BBC micro:bit IO pin, a switch-controlled input power terminal block, two output power terminal blocks (fed through power from the switched input) and Link compatible connections for other BBC micro:bit accessory boards. Power is provided via the input terminal block. The board has no voltage regulator, or overvoltage protection, so the supply voltage. MUST NOT exceed the rated supply of 3.3V for the BBC micro:bit.
Note: If the micro:bit is powered via its USB connector, there will be no power at the 3.3V terminal block output connections – this is to provide some overcurrent protection for the micro:bit. To use the Terminal Breakout board, the BBC micro:bit needs to be firmly inserted into the edge connector in the centre of the board. The BBC micro:bit can face in either direction and all the terminal blocks will be fully functional.
Features:It breaks out all of the signal and power pins on the microbit to user friendly terminal blocks.
Build permanent circuits that you move without worrying about jumper wires becoming detatched.
It features a switch controlled power block and two output power terminal blocks.
There is also built in overcurrent protection what using the USB connection to transfer data to the microbit.
The microbit connects to the board via an edge connector that the microbit slots directly into, either way around.
The board complies to the Link Standard that all Kitronik branded microbit accessories conform to.

Kitronik Tipper Trailer Add On for :MOVE mini Mk2
KI 5670
With this, the latest version of Kitronik's Tipper Truck add-on for :MOVE mini MK2 for the BBC microbit, everyone's favourite little programmable robot buggy just got much better. Robots often do more than just :MOVE from A to B, and with this add-on so can :MOVE mini. Although this add on has been designed to work with :MOVE mini MK2 it can also be fitted to the original :MOVE mini. Kitronik have produced two sets of build instructions as there is a slightly different procedure for each. The MK1 and MK2 build instructions can both be found in the resources section below.
This self assembly Tipper Truck add-on kit is made from the same materials as :MOVE mini, designed in keeping with the :MOVE mini aesthetic, and also comes with the servo required to move the Tipper Truck trailer up and down. There is a very simple Servo:Lite board hack that enables the control of the third servo, you can find out how here. Once the kit is fully assembled, the Tipper Truck can be coded with the Microsoft MakeCode Editor.
Note: In order to use this accessory you must enable the third servo functionality to be able to connect the third servo to the Servo:Lite board, some soldering is required in order to do this. The header pins required for this are supplied with this kit. Also, enabling the third servo disables the onboard ZIP LEDs. If you undo the third servo hack and return the board to its original state, the onboard ZIP LEDs will be re-enabled. Kitronik have produced a short guide showing how to enable the third servo and how to revert this change, read it here.

The RGB LED Strip is a board designed for low power lighting applications, such as mood lamps, edge-lit signs, or accent lights. Its discreet size and straightforward layout make it perfect for creating custom lighting enclosures. The board has a micro USB power connector and has been designed so that power requirements are within the supply rating of a computer USB port (under 100mA). This means you can power it conveniently from a computer/laptop or a suitable power supply.
The PCB is approximately 80mm long and 8mm wide, featuring a single M3 mounting hole and flat underside allowing for easy securing within custom enclosures. The USB connector projects approximately 2mm from the end of the PCB. The end mounted switch is used to step between lighting patterns and turn off the LEDs. A remote switch can be connected in parallel with the PCB switch, via the pads provided, to allow remote mounting within an enclosure. The remote switch should be momentary, normally open. The use of a non-momentary switch may result in unpredictable operation.
The 5 full-colour RGB LEDs are mounted on the boards centre line and are driven by a small onboard chip which is pre-programmed to deliver 4 patterns, selected by pressing the button to step through them:A great option for producing custom enclosures.
A rainbow fade that slowly fades through different colours.

Terminal block connectors are a great solderless solution for wiring projects up and a set of terminal style screwdrivers are a must for every workshop.
The screwdrivers are approximately 80mm in length, with the split between handle and shaft an even 50/50 at approximately 40mm each. Small enough to be super convenient and large enough to be perfect for the job in hand. Although small, the striking red coloured handles will enable you to spot them straight away; on a cluttered desktop, in a tool drawer, or any other typical tool discarding spot! As you know, it's always much easier to look for one colour at a time!
