Unlock its potential with this pre-built version of our 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 micro:bit. It provides access to all of the 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 micro:bit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Edge Connector Breakout Board for the micro:bit gives access to all of the important pins on the bottom edge of the 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo use the breakout board the micro:bit should be inserted firmly into the connector as shown below:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0174\/1800\/files\/5601b_edge_connector_breakout_board_connecting_large.jpg?225716761978738442\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote: \u003c\/strong\u003eThis product is supplied with straight double row PCB pin headers already soldered to the breakout board\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFeatures a dedicated pin strip for quick and easy prototyping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBreaks out 21 pins from the edge of the micro:bit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDedicated prototyping area with 3V and 0V rows\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLabelled pins and clear, straightforward documentation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with micro:bit v1 and v2!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eContents:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x Edge Connector Breakout Board for the micro:bit, pre-built\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength: 60mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWidth: 40mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeight: 11.8mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eRequires:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x \u003ca href=\"\/en-eu\/products\/new-micro-bit-v2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003emicro:bit\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eResources:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0174\/1800\/files\/5601b_built_edge_connector_breakout_board_for_the_bbc_microbit_datasheet_v1_1.pdf?12490662077898489497\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eClick here to download the datasheet\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Kitronik","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":19642210119,"sku":"KIT-5601B","price":5.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0174\/1800\/products\/5601b_large_edge_connector_breakout_board_c103e232-79f5-4492-a4c0-5f67800206ac.jpg?v=1461074493","url":"https:\/\/shop.pimoroni.com\/en-eu\/products\/edge-connector-breakout-board-for-bbc-micro-bit","provider":"Pimoroni Ltd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
