    Kitronik Prototyping System for Micro:bit

    Manufacturer: Kitronik
    This Prototyping System for the BBC micro:bit is a great way to start making circuits and making experiments without the need to solder.

    This prototyping system uses our specially designed Edge Connector Breakout Board for BBC micro:bit that gives full access to the pins on the bottom of the BBC micro:bit. The BBC micro:bit pins are broken out to a row of pin headers, the SCL and SDA pins are separated at the edge of the board providing easy identification. The PCB includes a prototyping area with 3V, 0V and unconnected rows that can be soldered to. This allows easy connection of switches, sensors and any pull-up or pull-down resistors etc. as required.

    This prototyping system is used in conjunction with a Small Prototype Breadboard. This makes it easy to connect additional components using the included jumper wires. No soldering required.

    Features:
  • No soldering is required.
  • Breaks out 21 pins from the BBC micro:bit using the Pre-built Edge Connector Breakout Board for BBC micro:bit.
  • Small Prototype Breadboard included so you can use additional components.
  • Run your own custom code from your BBC micro:bit to interact with external components.

  • Contents:
  • 4 x Pan Head M3 Machine Screws.
  • 1 x Small Prototype Breadboard.
  • 10 x Jumper Wires Male to Male.
  • 10 x Jumper Wires Male to Female.
  • 1 x Mounting Plate.
  • 1 x Edge Connector Breakout Board for BBC micro:bit - Pre-built.

    KI 56115
    Display meaningful output from your micro:bit project with the Kitronik :VIEW Graphics128 OLED display. The Kitronik :VIEW Graphics128 OLED display gives the user the ability to add a monochrome 128x64 display to the BBC micro: bit. The onboard edge connector allows the micro:bit to slot into the board without any additional fixings. The board also features a micro:bit style I/O connector which means it can be slotted into any other micro:bit accessory that has a slot for inserting a micro:bit. All of the pins from the BBC micro:bit are tracked through to provide the edge pads with the full usage of the BBC micro:bit, with the addition of a display. As the micro:bit slots directly into the board, no tools, fixings, or soldering are required.

    Power to the board can be provided via the edge connector or from the micro:bit. The board requires a 3V supply and has no voltage protection on the board. The board features an LED to indicate when the board has power. With every display, pixel turned on the board has a maximum power draw of 40mA. The 128x64 display uses the SSD1306 driver on an I2C interface. At the centre of the board are the breakout pads for the I2C lines, along with two ground pads and a 3V power pad. These pads are on a 2.54mm pitch, which means they will fit either wire or a pin header for jumper cables (not provided). This can be used by those who wish to add more I2C devices and functionality. It is possible to change the default I2C address of the board (see the Selecting Display section of this Datasheet for more details).

    Features:
  • Add a monochrome 128x64 OLED display to the micro:bit.
  • The micro:bit slots into the onboard edge connector.
  • The board features a micro:bit style I/O connector allowing it to be slotted into other micro:bit accessories.
  • It can be coded with MakeCode blocks and with Python.
  • Kitronik has created custom MakeCode blocks.
  • Kitronik has created a GitHub repo for custom Python functions.
  • It can be powered via the edge connector or by the micro:bit.
  • Requires a 3V supply.
  • The board features a power indicator LED.
  • It is possible to change the default I2C address of the board.
  • No tools, fixings, or soldering are required.

  • Dimensions:
  • Length: 58mm.
  • Width: 52mm.
  • Height: 11.8mm.
  • PCB Thickness: 1.6mm.
