KEYESTUDIO Microbit Edge Connector I/O Sensor Breakout Expansion

The KEYESTUDIO Microbit Edge Connector I/O Sensor Breakout Expansion is a versatile prototyping board designed to easily expand the connectivity of your BBC micro:bit. It is perfect for South African students, educators, and makers looking to connect multiple sensors and external hardware using alligator clips. This expansion board simplifies physical computing projects without the need for complex soldering.

Easy alligator clip connections

This breakout board provides a straightforward way to connect additional circuits and hardware to the BBC micro:bit edge connector. The design allows you to easily hook up sensors and modules using standard alligator clip lines.

Access to processor pins

The board breaks out multiple essential processor pins, including the power input/output interface and connection pins P0, P1, P2, P3, P12, P13, P14, P15, P16, P19, and P20. This gives you plenty of I/O options for complex electronics projects.

Dual power supply options

You can power your setup in two ways: either by connecting a battery case directly to the micro:bit main board, or by supplying power to the 3V and GND golden rings using alligator clip lines.

Compact dimensions and easy mounting

Measuring just 89mm by 33mm by 12mm and weighing 14.8g, this compact board operates at DC 3.0V to 3.3V. It features four fixed mounting holes at the edges, making it simple to secure onto your custom projects or chassis.

Graphical programming interface support

The micro:bit ecosystem supports the Microsoft PXT graphical programming interface, allowing students and hobbyists to code under Windows, MacOS, iOS, and Android. You can start programming your connected sensors immediately without downloading additional compilers.
