Add passive infrared detection (PIR) to your project with this PIR Motion sensor large lens version. Its 2.54mm pitch connector pins makes the job of connecting it to your project an easy one.

It features a large lens which allows for a long range and a wide viewing angle. Typical values for detection are; up to 9m detection range and a viewing angle of up to 120°.

The operating voltage is between 3V - 5.5V with a max current of 100uA. So, it's operating requirements won't be much of a drain on power, which is good news if your power is being supplied by batteries.

Features:

It has a long detection range, up to 9m.

It features a wide viewing angle, up to 120°.

Very low power consumption.

Dimensions:

Length: 36mm.

Width: 26mm.

Height: 21mm.

Pin Pitch: 2.54mm

This 90RPM in-line geared TT hobby motor is a great cost-effective solution for adding some movement to your buggy/robot builds. It can be used with our matching wheels and with our motor driver boards, such as our Motor Driver Board for Raspberry Pi Pico and the Compact Motor Driver Board for the BBC micro:bit, to name just two. Note: when using a microcontroller, do not drive these motors directly with the microcontroller, always use them in conjunction with a motor driver board.

Despite their low price point, these brightly coloured 120:1 motors are quite durable and are likely to last through multiple builds with ease.

Although there is a gearbox between the motor and the shaft, there are no rotary encoders. When connected to an appropriate motor driver, like the two listed above, you get forwards/backwards/stop. Simple yet effective. With 2 motors connected to a motor driver, you can also have directional control by turning off one motor and not the other. As is sometimes the case with servos and motors, there can be some small RPM differences between motors which can be overcome when coding, a little trial end error and the odd pause is usually all it takes.

These hobby motors have an operating voltage of between 3V and 6V, with 4.5V being nominal. This makes them suitable for powering with batteries. At 4.5V, they have a speed of 90RPM no-load and 72RPM at load. Torque at the nominal 4.5V is 0.3Kg/cm and they have a stall torque rating of 1.4Kg/cm. See Datasheet for more information.

Note:When using a microcontroller, do not attempt to drive these motors directly with the microcontroller, always use them in conjunction with a motor driver board.

Features:

A cost-effective movement solution for your buggy/robot builds.

Use in conjunction with a microcontroller, motor driver board, and wheels.

A simple yet durable design with a ratio of 120:1.

They are rated for an operating voltage of between 3V and 6v, with 4.5V being nominal.

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.

Explore time, light, and also sound with the Kitronik Alarm Clock Kit, a fun and hands-on introduction to the ZIP Halo HD.

Kitronik Alarm Clock Kit: The Kitronik Alarm Clock Kit with ZIP Halo HD for microbit provides a fun introduction to features of Halo HD. This kit features a modified version of Halo HD, all of the parts required to build the clock, and also power accessories. We have included an easy-to-follow tutorial book which will guide you through building your clock. Additionally, there are online tutorials within MakeCode. The modified version of Halo HD changes are as follows; power is now provided via a 2.1mm barrel jack connection and there is also a coin cell holder fitted to the rear of the board. When a 1220 coin cell battery is inserted, it will then provide power to the RTC chip when no power is being supplied to Halo HD.

ZIP Halo HD : The Kitronik Halo HD board for the BBC micro:bit incorporates 60 individually addressable full-colour ZIP LEDs. It also breaks out P1/P2 to a standard 0.1” footprint, it features a MEMS mic for detection of sound, and a buzzer to play sound. It also features an onboard real-time clock (RTC).

To add these blocks; Under the “Advanced” section click on “Extensions”. In the next window search for “Halo HD”. Then, click on the tile to import it into MakeCode. You will see that the blocks are split across three categories; ZIP LEDs, Microphone and Clock. For those requiring more of a challenge, the Alarm Clock Kit kit can also be coded with MicroPython.

The ZIP Halo HD supplied with this kit is powered via a 2.1mm Barrel jack connection. The kit is supplied with a 3 x AA Battery Cage with Lead and 2.1mm DC jack. The adapter cable is for use with a separate power supply (not included). A regulated supply is produced on the board to power the connected BBC micro:bit. Halo HD has also been fitted with an ON/OFF switch, switch it off when not in use and the onboard coin cell will keep the memory of the RTC chip alive.

NOTE:Ensure that when using a power supply that it is rated for at least 1A and 5V.

Bring your imagination to life. Simple and uncluttered control of up to 3 servos with the Kitronik :CREATE Simple Servo Control Board for BBC micro:bit. The Simple Servo Control Board offers a simple interface between the BBC micro:bit and up to 3 servos. The board features an edge connector for the micro:bit to slot into and in addition to the servo pin header connections, there are also 6 croc-clippable pads for adding additional devices.

The servo pin header connections are on a 0.1 inch (2.54mm) pitch and are labelled on the board as; Power, Ground and Signal. The 6 croc-clippable pads, at the bottom of the board, break out the P0, P1, P2 pins from the micro:bit. There are also pads for 3.3V and GND, with the final pad (Switch A) which allows for connecting an external switch.

The board is powered from 3x AA batteries (with attached battery cage) which powers the servo’s and is regulated to the required voltage to power a BBC micro:bit. The board includes a power switch to turn the servo’s and BBC micro:bit on or off. The power LED at the top of the board indicates when the board is active. The simple servo control board has mounting lugs on either side. They have been designed for use with elastic bands so that the board can be connected to your project without the need for tools.
