Description

The MakeOn Launchpad Set micro:bit & CLUE breaks out most of the pins on board the CLUE and micro:bit. The Launchpad is a 24 piece set with 12 of the most common female/male connectors, including a Grove Male Connector, an On/Off switch, a JST-PH, and a Coin Cell Powerpad in a break-a-part multi-panel hexagon. The set is called Nexus as it can make infinite combinations inside the global electronic ecosystem.

Details

This MakeOn Launchpad Set allows you to connect components by clip, clamp, tape, paint, rivet, solder, sew and snaps. The card reader mounting is soldered on both sides, making it durable and low profile at the same time. It is an excellent choice for low profile requirements, such as in tight places.

This MakeOn Launchpad Set can be used as a tool or toy and offers the most common connections to up to 4 pinouts components. Beginners and experts alike use this popular set for various circuit projects using the flexibility of MakeOn Launchpads.

• Excellent for hackathons or collaborative projects.
• Reusable.
• Multiple power pads make circuit building cleaner and lower profile with less crossover.
• The design allows you to use various connection types and conductive materials.
• This board’s card reader is soldered on the front and backside using SMD and through-hole techniques, making it durable and strong.
• The Launchpad for micro:bit and CLUE makes connecting to the full extent of these microcontrollers easier, faster, and more convenient.

Which microcontrollers are compatible with this MakeOn Launchpad Set?

Every microcontroller with the same pinout as the original micro-bit is compatible with the MakeOn Station, such as Adafruit clue, BBC micro:bit V2, etc.

The MakeOn Station is designed for Makeon’s shuttle and the Adafruit clue. However, all microcontrollers that have the same pinout as the original BBC micro:bit are compatible provided the gpios aren’t internally already connected, like on the BBC offers STEAM topics micro:bit.

MakeOn products are recommended for anyone 5 years old and up.
