It's like a thermal camera, only at a lower resolution. To make it even easier to get your low-resolution infrared image, all communication is exclusively through I²C, using our convenient Qwiic system. However, we still have 0.1"-spaced pins if you prefer using a breadboard. The AMG8833 Grid-EYE from Panasonic has an accuracy of ±2.5°C with a temperature range from 0°C to 80°C. Moreover, this IR 'camera' board can detect human body heat at about 7 meters or less and has a frame rate of 10 frames per second to one frame per second. It is important to point out that, although this version of the Grid-EYE is the most powerful type with high gain, it only tolerates 3.3 V. Features Operating voltage (startup): 1.6-3.6 V Operating voltage (during operation): 1.5-3.6 V Power consumption: 4.5 mA 8x8 thermopile array Temperature range: 0°C to 80°C Accuracy: ±2.5°C Human Detection Distance: 7 m or less I2C Address: 0x69 (open jumper, default) or 0x68 (closed jumper) 2x Qwiic Connection Ports

The Sparkfun Qwiic GPIO is an I²C device based around the TCA9534 I/O Expander IC from Texas Instruments. The board adds eight IO pins that you can read and write just like any other digital pin on your controller. The details of the I²C interface have been taken care of in an Arduino library so you can call functions similar to Arduino's pinMode and digitalWrite, allowing you to focus on your creation! The TCA9534's pins are broken out to easy-to-use latch terminals; never screw another wire into place! The terminals are relatively roomy themselves, so feel free to latch multiple wires into a ground or power terminal. With three customizable address jumpers, you can have up to eight Qwiic GPIO boards connected on a single bus allowing upwards of 64 additional GPIO pins! The default I²C is 0x27 and can be changed by adjusting the jumpers on the board's back. Features Eight Configurable GPIO Pins Available I²C Address: 0x27 (Default) Hardware address pins allow up to eight boards on a single bus Input Polarity Inversion Register Control each I/O pin individually or all at once Open-Drain Active-Low Interrupt Output 2x Qwiic Connectors Dimensions: 60.96 x 38.10 mm

You can program the nRF52840 chip directly to take full advantage of the Cortex-M4 processor, and then calling into the Nordic SoftDevice radio stack when you need to communicate over BLE. Since the underlying API and peripherals are the same for the '832 and '840, you can supercharge your older nRF52832 projects with the same exact code, with a single recompile! CircuitPython works best with disk drive access, and this is the only BLE-plus-USB-native chip that has the memory to handle running a little Python interpreter. The massive RAM and speedy Cortex M4F chip make this a good match. Peripherals Plenty of GPIO, analog inputs, PWM, timers, etc. Best of all, it's got that native USB! Finally, no need for a separate USB serial chip like CP2104 or FT232. Serial is handled as a USB CDC descriptor, and the chip can act like a keyboard, mouse, MIDI device, or even disk drive. This chip has TinyUSB support – that means you can use it with Arduino as a native USB device and act as UART (CDC), HID, Mass Storage, MIDI, and more! Features ARM Cortex M4F (with HW floating point acceleration) running at 64 MHz 1 MB flash and 256 KB SRAM Native Open Source USB stack (pre-programmed with UF2 bootloader) Bluetooth Low Energy compatible 2.4 GHz radio FCC / IC / TELEC certified module Up to +8 dBm output power 1.7 V to 3.3 V operation with internal linear and DC/DC voltage regulators 21 GPIO, 6x 12-bit ADC pins, up to 12 PWM outputs (3 PWM modules with 4 outputs each) Pin #3 red LED for general purpose blinking, NeoPixel for colorful feedback Power/enable pin Measures 2.0 x 0.9 x 0.28' (51 x 23 x 7.2 mm) without headers soldered in Light as a (large?) feather (6 grams) 4 mounting holes Reset button SWD connector for debugging

The NEO-M8U module is a 72-channel u-blox M8 engine GNSS receiver, meaning it can receive signals from the GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, and BeiDou constellations with ~2.5-meter accuracy. The module supports the concurrent reception of three GNSS systems. The combination of GNSS and integrated 3D sensor measurements on the NEO-M8U provide accurate, real-time positioning rates of up to 30Hz. Compared to other GPS modules, this breakout maximizes position accuracy in dense cities or covered areas. Even under poor signal conditions, continuous positioning is provided in urban environments and is also available during complete signal loss (e.g. short tunnels and parking garages). With UDR, position begins as soon as power is applied to the board, even before the first GNSS fix is available! Lock time is further reduced with an on-board rechargeable battery; you'll have backup power enabling the GPS to get a hot lock within seconds! Additionally, this u-blox receiver supports I²C (u-blox calls this Display Data Channel), making it perfect for the Qwiic compatibility, so we don't have to use up our precious UART ports. Utilizing our handy Qwiic system, no soldering is required to connect it to the rest of your system. However, we still have broken out 0.1'-spaced pins if you prefer to use a breadboard. U-blox based GPS products are configurable using the popular but dense, windows program called u-centre. Plenty of different functions can be configured on the NEO-M8U: baud rates, update rates, geofencing, spoofing detection, external interrupts, SBAS/D-GPS, etc. All of this can be done within the SparkFun Arduino Library! The SparkFun NEO-M8U GPS Breakout is also equipped with an on-board rechargeable battery that provides power to the RTC on the NEO-M8U. This reduces the time-to-first fix from a cold start (~26s) to a hot start (~1.5s). The battery will maintain RTC and GNSS orbit data without being connected to power for plenty of time. Features Integrated U.FL connector for use with an antenna of your choice 72-Channel GNSS Receiver 2.5 m Horizontal Accuracy 30 Hz Max Update Rate Time-To-First-Fix: Cold: 26 s Hot: 1.5 s Max Altitude: 50,000 m Max G: ≤4 Max Velocity: 500 m/s Velocity Accuracy: 0.5m/s Heading Accuracy: 1 degree Built-In Accelerometer and Gyroscope Time Pulse Accuracy: 30 ns 3.3 V VCC and I/O Current Consumption: ~29 mA Continuous Tracking, Default Concurrent Mode Software Configurable Geofencing Odometer Spoofing Detection External Interrupt Pin Control Low Power Mode Many others! Supports NMEA, UBX, and RTCM protocols over UART or I²C interfaces

The VL53L1X from STMicroelectronics uses a VCSEL (Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser) to emit an Infrared laser to time the reflection to the target. That means that you will be able to measure the distance to an object from 40mm to 4m away with millimeter resolution! To make it even easier to get your readings, all communication is enacted exclusively via I²C, utilizing our handy Qwiic system, so no soldering is required to connect it to the rest of your system. However, we still have broken out 0.1”-spaced pins in case you prefer to use a breadboard. Each VL53L1X sensor features a precision to be 1mm with an accuracy around +/-5mm, and a minimum read distance of this sensor is 4cm. The field of view for this little breakout is fairly narrow at 15°-27° with a read rate of up to 50Hz. Make sure to power this board appropriately since it will need 2.6V-3.5V to operate. Lastly, please be sure to remove the protective sticker on the VL53L1X before use otherwise it will, most assuredly, throw off your readings. Features Operating Voltage: 2.6V-3.5V Power Consumption: 20 mW @10Hz Measurement Range: ~40mm to 4,000mm Resolution: +/-1mm Light Source: Class 1 940nm VCSEL 7-bit unshifted I²C Address: 0x29 Field of View: 15° - 27° Max Read Rate: 50Hz

This FeatherWing will make it easy to add data logging to any Feather Board you might have. You get both an I²C real-time clock (PCF8523) with 32 KHz crystal and battery backup, and a microSD socket that connects to the SPI port pins (+ extra pin for CS). Note: FeatherWing doesn't come with a microSD card. A CR1220 coin cell is required to use the RTC battery-backup capabilities. If you're not using the RTC part of the FeatherWing, a battery is not required. To talk to the microSD card socket Arduino's default SD library is recommended. Some light soldering is required to attach the headers onto the Wing. Pinouts Power pins On the bottom row, the 3.3 V (second from left) and GND (fourth from left) pin are used to power the SD card and RTC (to take a load off the coin cell battery when main power is available) RTC & I²C Pins In the top right, SDA (rightmost) and SCL (to the left of SDA) are used to talk to the RTC chip. SCL - I²C clock pin to connect to your microcontroller's I2C clock line. This pin has a 10 kΩ pull-up resistor to 3.3 V SDA - I²C data pin to connect to your microcontroller's I2C data line. This pin has a 10 kΩ pull-up resistor to 3.3 V There's also a breakout for INT which is the output pin from the RTC. It can be used as an interrupt output or it could also be used to generate a square wave. Note that this pin is an open drain - you must enable the internal pull-up on whatever digital pin it is connected to. SD & SPI Pins Starting from the left you've got SPI Clock (SCK) - output from feather to wing SPI Master Out Slave In (MOSI) - output from feather to wing SPI Master In Slave Out (MISO) - input from wing to feather These pins are in the same location on every Feather. They are used for communicating with the SD card. When the SD card is not inserted, these pins are completely free. MISO is tri-stated whenever the SD CS (chip select) pin is pulled high

This version of the Micro OLED Breakout is exactly the size of its non-Qwiic sibling, featuring a screen that is 64 pixels wide and 48 pixels tall and measuring 0.66' across. But it has also been equipped with two Qwiic connectors, making it ideal for I²C operations. We've also added two mounting holes and a convenient Qwiic cable holder incorporated into a detachable tab on the board that can be easily removed thanks to a v-scored edge. We've even made sure to include an I²C pull-up jumper and ADDR jumper on the back of the board, so if you have your own I²C pull-ups or need to change the I2C address of the board! Features Qwiic-Connector Enabled Operating Voltage: 3.3V Operating Current: 10mA (20mA max) Screen Size: 64x48 pixels (0.66' Across) Monochrome Blue-on-Black I²C Interface

The Power Delivery Board uses a standalone controller to negotiate with the power adapters and switch to a higher voltage other than just 5V. This uses the same power adapter for different projects rather than relying on multiple power adapters to provide different output; it can deliver the board as part of SparkFun’s Qwiic connect system, so you won’t have to do any soldering to figure out how things are oriented. The SparkFun Power Delivery Board takes advantage of the power delivery standard using a standalone controller from STMicroelectronics, the STUSB4500. The STUSB4500 is a USB power delivery controller that addresses sink devices. It implements a proprietary algorithm to negotiate a power delivery contract with a source (i.e. a power delivery wall wart or power adapter) without the need for an external microcontroller. However, you will need a microcontroller to configure the board. PDO profiles are configured in an integrated non-volatile memory. The controller does all the heavy lifting of power negotiation and provides an easy way to configure over I²C. To configure the board, you will need an I²C bus. The Qwiic system makes it easy to connect the Power Delivery board to a microcontroller. Depending on your application, you can also connect to the I²C bus via the plated through SDA and SCL holes. Features Input and output voltage range of 5-20V Output current up to 5A Three configurable power delivery profiles Auto-run Type-C™ and USB PD sink controller Certified USB Type-C™ rev 1.2 and USB PD rev 2.0 (TID #1000133) Integrated VBUS voltage monitoring Integrated VBUS switch gate drivers (PMOS)

Wouldn't it be cool to drive a tiny OLED display, read a color sensor, or even just flash some LEDs directly from your computer? Sure you can program an Arduino or Trinket to talk to these devices and your computer, but why can't your computer just talk to those devices and sensors itself? Well, now your computer can talk to devices using the Adafruit FT232H breakout board! What can the FT232H chip do? This chip from FTDI is similar to their USB to serial converter chips but adds a 'multi-protocol synchronous serial engine' which allows it to speak many common protocols like SPI, I²C, serial UART, JTAG, and more! There's even a handful of digital GPIO pins that you can read and write to do things like flash LEDs, read switches or buttons, and more. The FT232H breakout is like adding a little swiss army knife for serial protocols to your computer! This chip is powerful and useful to have when you want to use Python (for example) to quickly iterate and test a device that uses I²C, SPI or plain general purpose I/O. There's no firmware to deal with, so you don't have to deal with how to 'send data to and from an Arduino which is then sent to and from' an electronic sensor or display or part. This breakout has an FT232H chip and an EEPROM for onboard configuration. Specifications Dimensions: 23 x 38 x 4 mm (0.9 x 1.5 x 0.2') Weight: 3.4 g Downloads CAD Files

The MLX90640 SparkFun IR Array Breakout features a 32×24 array of thermopile sensors generating, in essence, a low resolution thermal imaging camera. With this breakout you can observe surface temperatures from a decent distance away with an accuracy of ±1.5 °C (best case). This board communicates via I²C using the Qwiic system developed by Sparkfun, which makes it easier to operate the breakout. However, there are still 0.1'-spaced pins in case you favour using a breadboard. The SparkFun Qwiic connect system is an ecosystem of I²C sensors, actuators, shields and cables that make prototyping faster and helps you avoid errors. All Qwiic-enabled boards use a common 1 mm pitch, 4-pin JST connector. This reduces the amount of required PCB space, and polarized connections help you connect everything correctly. This specific IR Array Breakout provides a 110°×75° field of view with a temperature measurement range of -40 °C ~ 300 °C. The MLX90640 IR Array has pull up resistors attached to the I²C bus; both can be removed by cutting the traces on the corresponding jumpers on the back of the board. Please be aware that the MLX90640 requires complex calculations by the host platform so a regular Arduino Uno (or equivalent) doesn't have enough RAM or flash to complete the complex computations required to turn the raw pixel data into temperature data. You will need a microcontroller with 20,000 bytes or more of RAM.
