With low power consumption and an easy to use package, it mates well with embedded electronics and can be used with common IR remotes. The TSOP382 is a miniaturized receiver for infrared remote control systems. A PIN diode and a preamplifier are assembled on a lead frame while the epoxy package acts as an IR filter. The demodulated output signal can be directly decoded by a microprocessor. The TSOP382 is compatible...

Jumper wires are one of the most important gear component for the tinkerer. Often understimated, but one of the first things to miss. If you are starting to assemble your tinker gear and wondering if this is really needed, doubt not, this is at some point or another always used. Wire or pieces or wire are basic, even for the non-often tinkerers. Jumper wires are not just fitted for prototyping but also a resource for repurposing. You can cut them and add new headers, or mix them up and connect...

The Kitronik Smart Air Quality Board for Pico provides a complete air monitoring and reporting solution for the Raspberry Pi Pico. The wealth of onboard sensors and connection points allow you to log, store and display data effectively with the Pico filesystem and an OLED screen. There are also connection points for external devices, such as analogue sensors, servos, motors, and heater pads. The board includes a dual row of pin sockets to connect your Raspberry Pi Pico. The Pico can then read...

The KR Sense 45A is a small voltage and current sense breakout board. DC current is determined by measuring a voltage drop across a parallel shunt resistor, then converted to a final analog voltage output by the INA-169. Voltage sense is accomplished by scaling to 3.3V ADC range by a precision resistor divider. This version of the sensor features a maximum voltage tolerance of 51.8V at 44.7A, to be exact. Please be aware that KR Sense boards are supplied without leads or connectors. The pad...

We've all been there; you load up your project with a bunch of LEDs, only to discover that none have the same brightnesses. Some are way too dim to see, while others require sunglasses to not be blinded! Even we have experienced this problem with prototypes, so we recently standardized all resistor values for each of our LEDs (you can read more about that process in this blog post). In the process, we created this board to test each of our LEDs side by side. We realized that our customers...

The Leopard Imaging Camera is a 136° FOV (field of view) wide angle camera module that is great for machine vision applications, and designed specifically to be compatible with the NVIDIA Jetson Nano Developer Kit. This camera incorporates a Sony IMX219 8.08MP color sensor, a fixed focus (M8) lens, and utilizes CSI-2 MIPI 2-lane data output interface. This is the same camera that we include in the SparkFun Jetbot v2.1 Kit. Note: SparkFun has not established the compatibility of this camera...

It's back! This is the LIDAR-Lite v3, a compact optical distance measurement sensor from Garmin™. When space and weight requirements are tight, the LIDAR-Lite v3 soars. The LIDAR-Lite v3 is the ideal solution for drone, robot or unmanned vehicle applications. This easy-to-use 40-meter laser-based optical ranging sensor has all the core features that made the LIDAR-Lite v2 so popular. Small in form and light in weight with low power consumption of less than 130mA during an acquisition. And it’s...

LIDAR has never looked so good! This is the LIDAR-Lite v3HP, a compact, high-performance optical distance measurement sensor from Garmin™. The LIDAR-Lite v3HP is the ideal optical ranging solution for drone, robot, or unmanned vehicle applications. Each sensor is housed in a durable, IPX7-rated housing and includes all the core features and user configurability of the popular LIDAR-Lite v3. The v3HP is very similar in function to that of the v3 but it can now sample faster at rates greater...

This is a BH1750 light intensity sensor breakout board with a 16 bit AD converter built-in which can directly output a digital signal, there is no need for complicated calculations. This is a more acurate and easier to use version of the simple foto resistor which only outputs a voltage that needs to be calculated in order to obtain meaningful data. With the BH1750 Light Sensor intensity can be directly measured by the luxmeter, without needing to make calculations. The data which is output by...

This is a three axis accelerometer for the LilyPad system. Based on the ADXL335 accelerometer from Analog Devices, the LilyPad Accelerometer can detect joint movement as well as inclination and vibration.The ADXL335 outputs a 0V to 3V analog signal on each of the X, Y, and Z axis. You will need to convert this analog voltage to a gravity amount and use trigonometry to calculate a true 'angle'. If you are not looking for tilt, it is very easy to use this sensor for basic motion sensing.LilyPad...

A line follower sensor gives your robot the ability to detect lines or nearby objects. The sensor works by detecting reflected light coming from its own infrared LED. By measuring the amount of reflected infrared light, it can detect transitions from light to dark (lines) or even objects directly in front of it. Light-colored surfaces will reflect more light than dark surfaces, resulting in their appearing brighter to the sensor. This allows the sensor to detect a dark line on a pale surface,...
