    Kitronik Terminal Block Breakout for Microbit

    Manufacturer: Kitronik
    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.

  • Dimensions:
  • Length: 80mm.
  • Width: 50mm.
  • PCB Thickness: 1.6mm.

    Kitronik Edge Connector Breakout Board for Micro:bit Pre-built

    KI 5601B
    Looking to do more with your BBC micro:bit? Unlock its potential with this ‘pre-built’ version of the Edge Connector Breakout Board! This breakout board has been designed to offer an easy way to connect additional circuits and hardware to the pins on the edge of the BBC micro:bit. It provides access to all of the BBC micro:bit processor pins allowing a lot of extra functionality to be added. The datasheet (below) includes a helpful diagram explaining the function of every pin on the BBC micro:bit.

    This Edge Connector Breakout Board for the BBC micro:bit gives access to all of the important pins on the bottom edge of the BBC micro:bit. 21 pins are broken out in total; providing additional I/O lines, direct access to buttons A and B, the LED matrix outputs and the I2C bus. Please refer to the datasheet below for more details.

    The BBC micro:bit pins are broken out to a row of pin headers. These provide an easy way of connecting circuits using jumper wires. The SCL and SDA pins are separated at the edge of the board (solder pads) providing easy identification. The PCB includes a prototyping area with 3V, 0V and unconnected rows that can be soldered to. This allows the easy connection of switches, sensors and any pull-up or pull-down resistors etc. as required.

    To use the breakout board the BBC micro:bit should be inserted firmly into the connector.

    Features:
  • Features a dedicated pin strip for quick and easy prototyping.
  • Breaks out 21 pins from the edge of the BBC micro:bit.
  • Dedicated prototyping area with 3V and 0V rows.
  • Labelled pins and clear straightforward documentation.

  • Contents:
  • 1 x Edge Connector Breakout Board for the BBC micro:bit, Pre-built.

  • Possible applications include:
  • Accessing additional pins and functionality on the BBC micro:bit.
  • Trying out one of the experiments detailed in the Inventors kit for BBC micro:bit.

  • Dimensions:
  • Length: 60mm.
  • Width: 40mm.
  • Height: 11.8mm.

    MIC 495
    Perfect for sharing the micro:bit with friends, the micro:bit club is a 10 pack containing all the pieces needed to enjoy micro:bit in STEM groups, coding clubs, school classes, scouts, guides and cubs or any other social gathering (contains 10 BBC micro:bits V2, 10x USB cables, 10 x battery holders ; 20x AAA batteries).

    The micro:bit is a pocket-sized computer that you can code, customise and control to bring your digital ideas, games and apps to life. Measuring 4cm by 5cm, and designed to be fun and easy to use, users can create anything from games and animations to scrolling stories at school, at home and on the go - all you need is imagination and creativity.

    The micro:bit is completely programmable. That means each of its LEDs can be individually programmed as can its buttons, inputs and outputs, accelerometer, magnetometer and Bluetooth Smart Technology. The micro:bit has a website full of coding languages, lesson plans, tutorials, and fun ideas to help you get creative
