Description

The MakeOn Station Launchpad breaks out most of the pins on board the CLUE and micro:bit. You can connect components by clip, clamp, tape, paint, rivet, solder, sew and snaps. The size of the pads allows clear connections to be made less complex. 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.

Key Features of the MakeOn Station

• This breakout board features multiple access points to V+ GND.
• It connects to pins.
• The design allows it to be mounted on the wall or in wearables to show the micro:bit on full display.
• High-quality connector.
• Low profile.
• SMD design.
• Extra through-holes on the PCB for various types of mounting techniques, for example, screws, thread, hot glue, etc.

Key Benefits of the MakeOn Station

• Multiple power pads make circuit building cleaner and lower profile with less crossover.
• The design allows you to use multiple 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.

Which microcontrollers are compatible with the MakeOn Station?

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 micro:bit.

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