Hi there everybody and welcome again to a different Friday Product Put up right here at SparkFun Electronics! This week we’ve got so many new merchandise, and we begin with the most recent variations of the BlueSMiRF boards to effortlessly and successfully transmit serial information over Bluetooth®. These boards are available two variations, one with headers pre-soldered and one with out. Following that, we’ve got a brand new Soldering Equipment with the remarkably sturdy PINECIL soldering iron geared up with a RISC-V SoC for six second start-up and built-in IMU. From SparkX we’ve got a brand new Qwiic USB Improvement Equipment which lets you interface a Qwiic gadget shortly and simply to a pc. There are fairly a couple of extra merchandise to take a look at this week, so let’s leap in and take a better take a look at all of them!
Able to beacon your solution to brilliance?
The SparkFun BlueSMiRF v2 (accessible with and with out headers) is a wi-fi Bluetooth® serial hyperlink. These boards work as a wi-fi serial UART pipe and are an amazing wi-fi alternative for serial cables. Merely pair, join, and transmit serial information between your TX/RX traces! Any serial stream from 2400 to 921600 baud could be handed seamlessly between two gadgets.
The PINECIL Soldering Iron Equipment offers a compact powerhouse and the whole lot it’s essential ignite your DIY dream. Inside, you may discover the game-changing PINECIL iron, famend for its lightning-fast heat-up and pinpoint precision. A premium USB-C cable additionally ensures seamless energy, whereas a sturdy soldering stand and brass sponge hold your workspace organized and secure. A PD wall adapter is included to increase your soldering periods, able to gasoline your inventive marathon. With the whole lot in a single place, the PINECIL Soldering Iron Equipment empowers you to craft, restore, and personalize like by no means earlier than.
After all, we’re going to carry the soldering iron by itself, too! The PINECIL is a great mini moveable soldering iron with a 32-bit RISC-V SoC that includes a glossy design, a built-in IMU for auto standby and it heats as much as an working temperature in simply six seconds!
The Qwiic USB Improvement Equipment is designed for people that need to interface a Qwiic gadget shortly and simply to a pc. The core processor is the SAM21 which permits fast (hah!) and seamless serial printing over USB, in addition to straightforward growth and programming utilizing the Arduino setting. The skilled printed enclosure makes the gadget straightforward to plug/unplug in addition to permitting Qwiic boards to be mounted to the enclosure itself.
The Sipeed Tang Primer 25K can join a USB joystick, plug in a 40Pin SDRAM module, use three PMOD interfaces to hook up with an HDMI show, or plug in a PS2 joystick to kind a typical RetroGame console configuration. It may also be paired with the collection of PMOD modules produced by Sipeed, to be used in FPGA college instructing.
These tiny, stepper-driven, XY levels have been clearly manufactured for… one thing? We’re undecided what they have been made for, however they seemed too cool for us to cross up. With a journey of two.4mm on every axis, this mechanism is nice for tasks that require precision motion, reminiscent of automated microscopy. The meeting is generally plastic and slides on steel pins. Every axis is pushed by sq. nut on a threaded shaft with a return spring. There’s a photointerrupter on every axis that primarily acts as a homing swap.
This breakout board is designed to accompany our Micro XY Stage, which comes with a 0.3mm-pitch flat flex cable that makes it tough to prototype with. Slide the cable into the FFC connector and revel in having it damaged out to obviously labeled 0.1″ headers, able to breadboard or mount in your challenge.
This can be a 65W energy supply (PD) wall adapter. The ability provide will ship a most of 240VAC, 1.5A. It has one USB-A and two USB-C ports. The adapter makes use of an inside main present fuse, inrush limiting for enter safety.
Ditch the adapter litter and energy up globally with this helpful 3-pack Worldwide PD Adapter Socket. Outfitted with connectors for EU, UK, and Australian retailers, it simply bridges the hole between your gadgets and the world’s energy grids.
Want a solution to join that energy adapter? This USB-C to USB-C energy charging cable may be what you want! It comes with a versatile, tangle free silicone coating. Coming in at 3m (9.84ft.) supplying you with loads of size to work in your challenge without having to be proper subsequent to the facility supply.
Tidy up your workspace and hold your soldering tip in peak situation with this helpful Soldering Stand and Brass Sponge combo. The weighted base holds your iron securely, whereas the built-in brass sponge cleans extra solder with each relaxation. No extra frantic looking for cleansing provides or risking unintended burns – this combo answer retains the whole lot organized and inside straightforward attain.
The ATtiny84 is one other of Atmel’s little tiny 8-Bit Processors. 8KB (4K x 16) of program area, 12 I/O traces, and 8-channel 10 bit ADC. It can run as much as 20MHz with an exterior crystal and could be programmed in circuit.
This can be a widespread MOSFET with very low on-resistance and a management voltage (aka gate voltage) that’s suitable with any 3-5V microcontroller or mechanical swap. This lets you management high-power gadgets with very low-power management mechanisms.
That is it for this week. As at all times, we won’t wait to see what you make! Shoot us a tweet @sparkfun, or tell us on Instagram, Fb or LinkedIn. Please be secure on the market, be form to 1 one other! We’ll be again with extra new merchandise subsequent week so be sure that to verify again then. Comfortable hacking!
By no means miss a brand new product!
