micro:bit circular RGB LED expansion board with micropython examples
The next add on board I looked at was essentially an RGB LED ring that you connected to the micro:bit, you attached it and using the supplied screws connected it…

This is an interesting add-on for the micro:bit, its a little piano. Lets take a look at it It has the following features micro:bit edge connector, directly pluggable Buzzer to…
In this article we look at the scroll:bit, this is an add on from Pimoroni which contains a lot of LEDs, in fact there are 119 in total in a…
I purchased this module as part of another microcontroller kit, its an interesting little module as it has 16 buttons but with only 1 I/O line is required, an analog input.…
Tri-color LEDs contain three different LED emitters in one case. Each emitter is connected to a separate lead so they can be controlled independently. A four-lead arrangement is typical with…
A photoresistor (or light-dependent resistor, LDR, or photocell) is a light-controlled variable resistor. The resistance of a photoresistor decreases with increasing incident light intensity; in other words, it exhibits photoconductivity.…
The neopixel module lets you use Neopixel (WS2812) individually addressable RGB LED strips with the Microbit. Note to use the neopixel module, you need to import it separately with: import…
The micro:bit also has a compass (magnetometer), it is a MAG3110 Overview The MAG3110 is a small, low-power digital 3D magnetic sensor with a wide dynamic range to allow operation…
The micro:bit has an accelerometer on board, you can see this in the picture below of the layout of the board For those that are interested it is actually a MMA8653FC…
As the title suggests in this particular example we will show how easy it is to display an image on the Micro:bit LED matrix The Image class also has the…
