 A snap is fun, but a magnetic snap adds a whole new layer of possibilities. This are compact 10mm diameter snaps (all three pieces come as shown). They couple together very strongly (must be pried apart), rotate freely on the axis, and are electrically conductive. We've seen snaps like these soldered onto PCBs and batteries to form a strong, but quick disconnect mechanism. Overall connection resistance is less than 200 miliOhm. Snaps will couple when closer than 10mm. |

This is a breakout board for the SP3485 RS-485 transceiver IC, which will convert a UART serial stream to RS-485. The SP3485 is a half-duplex transceiver, so it can only communicate one way at a time, but it can reach transmission speeds of up to 10Mbps. This board requires a very low amount of power and can operate from a single +3.3VDC supply. This breakout board includes the SP3485 RS-485 transceiver, filter capacitor, and other components shown on the schematic. We've broken out the RS-485

Conductive thread is a creative way to connect various electronics onto clothing. This thread can carry current for power and signals. While not as conductive as traces on a printed circuit board (PCB), this thread makes wearable clothing 'wearable'! This is a plated silver type thread (as opposed to stainless steel). This is a finer thread that can be used in standard sewing machines. Resistance is about 82 Ohms per foot. Spool contains 1 oz of thread, about 150 yards.
This is 30 feet of conductive thread spun from stainless steel fiber and wound on a plastic bobbin. Use it to sew up all of your e-textile projects. This small bobbin is a great way to get into wearable electronics without the upfront cost of buying an entire spool of thread. 30 feet of thread is enough to get a simple design stitched onto your shirt, backpack or hat. What sets this thread apart from the other conductive thread that we carry is the fact that it's actually spun from stainless

This is a three axis accelerometer for the LilyPad system. Based on the ADXL330 accelerometer from Analog Devices, the LilyPad Accelerometer can detect joint movement as well as inclination and vibration. The ADXL330 outputs a 0V to 3V analog signal on each of the X, Y, and Z axis. You will need to relate this analog voltage to a gravity amount and use trigonometry to calculate a true 'angle'. If you are not looking for tilt, it is very easy to use this sensor for basic motion sensing. LilyPad

Overview The 3pi robot is designed to
This device is a programmer for AVR-based controllers, such as the 3pi robot. The programmer emulates an AVRISP v2 on a virtual serial port, making it compatible with standard AVR programming software. Two additional features help with building and debugging projects: a TTL-level serial port for general-purpose communication and a SLO-scope for monitoring signals and voltage levels. General AVR ISP Programmer The Pololu USB AVR Programmer is an extremely compact, low-cost in-system programmer
The EasyDriver is a simple to use stepper motor driver, compatible with anything that can output a digital 0 to 5V pulse. EasyDriver requires a 7V to 30V supply to power the motor, and has an on board voltage regulator for the digital interface. Connect a 4-wire stepper motor and a microcontroller and you've got precision motor control! EasyDriver drives bi-polar motors, and motors wired as bi-polar. I.e. 4,6, or 8 wire stepper motors. This is the newest version of EasyDriver V4 co-designed
LinkM is a USB adapter that addresses two of the most frequently-requested BlinkM features: It enables you to program BlinkMs without setting up a separate I/O board, such as an Arduino. It lets you program or control multiple BlinkMs simultaneously. Plug it in, plug in a BlinkM, fire up the BlinkM Multitrack Sequencer, and start programming BlinkMs. It requires no drivers (when used with most operating systems), additional software or hardware. LinkM is about the same size and shape as a thumb
Created in collaboration with Jamie Robertson, the MP3 Trigger is quite possibly the most versatile, low-cost, low power embedded MP3 Player. The board has 18 external trigger pins that will directly trigger pre-selected MP3 tracks, and a full-duplex serial control port that provides full transport control, remote triggering for up to 256 tracks, and fast real-time volume control. The board plays the MP3 files directly from a FAT16 microSD flash card and supports 192Kbps stereo playback. There

Serial LCD 16x2 This is a great little LCD display. With the integrated serial interface no additional backpack converter is required. Offering several serial interfaces, you can choose the one that best fits your project needs. Using only one i/o pin you can drive it with either hardware or software serial. If you are already using a I2C bus you can assign the LCD a unique ID and add it to your existing two wire I2C bus (great if you need to drive multiple LCD's at once.) The SPI interface is
The 7-Segment Serial Display turns the thirteen pins necessary to control a 4-digit 7-segment display into just one or three. The display will give you full control of all digits, decimal points, the colon and the apostrophe. At the heart of the display is an ATMega168 which controls all the serial communications and the 4-digit 7-segment display through an easy to use API. The Serial 7-Segment Display can be controlled in one of two ways: (1) serial TTL communication or (2) SPI serial
