In this example we connect a HC-SR04 Ultrasonic ranging module to a Pyboard Ultrasonic ranging module HC – SR04 provides 2cm – 400cm non-contact measurement function, the ranging accuracy can reach…
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.…
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…
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.…
This is a fairly simple dice throwing game for the micro:bit, in this example you shake the micro:bit and a dice image will be displayed on the LEDs The example…
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…
For the purposes of education and entertainment, the module contains several example tunes that are expressed as Python lists. They can be used like this: import music music.play(music.NYAN) All the…
The BBC micro:bit does not have a dedicated temperature sensor. Instead, the temperature provided is actually the temperature of the silicon die on the main CPU. So not a perfect…
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…
